remote desktop applescript


Apple has his own implementation of remote desktop. Despite you can remote desktop using VNC using the software from apple has his unique benefits. Performance is hands down better plus it understands the display layout and acts accordingly. In addition you have full control from applescript.

Thanks to that last feature, launching remote desktop to control another machine from quicksilver is pretty easy:

tell application "Remote Desktop"
  activate
  control computer "snowball"
end tell

Don't forget to add your catalog in quicksilver so it indexes that directory so your applescripts are visible to qs.

Superbowl!
