Ah....

I don't know how you'd accomplish that. I believe somehow the parent
application (Daylite) would have to be scriptable itself or at least aware
it's plugins were scriptable so it knew to load up the scripting definitions
from the plugins and expose them to the greater OSA architecture.

My app that I'm making scriptable is an app shell with lots of plugins,
scripting functionality in both the app itself and the plugins, but I
control all pieces. And I do have to make my app manually synthesize the
main sdef from the app and plugin sdef files. See those URL's I sent you for
how to do this.

But again, if that Daylite app isn't scriptable or aware of its plugins
being scriptable, not sure how to accomplish this. You could always contact
the developers of Daylite and ask them.
