I made an app with AppleScript called FRIDAY. When I tell it to 'open chrome', it opens google chrome, this is working on Script Editor and out side of script editor. I can also tell it to 'open a new tab' and it opens a new tab using keystrokes:
-- this boolean is the reason this script keeps runing
set condition to false
say "Welcome sir"
set commands to {"what is todays date", "what time is it", "what is the time", "what day is it", "what month is it", "which month is it", "friday you up", "friday", "friday you tere", "you there", "empty the trash", "take out the trash", "clean up", "new tab", "next tab", "back", "take a nap", "go to sleep", "take a rest", "wake up", "copy the link", "paste the link", "give me list of running apps", "open a folder", "open chrome", "open youtube", "open atom", "quit atom", "goodbye FRIDAY_AI", "okay thanks", "okay thank you", "thanks", "thank you", "good night", "good morning", "morning", "night", "hey friday"}
repeat until condition is true
try
tell application "SpeechRecognitionServer"
set FRIDAY_AI to listen continuously for commands with identifier "mine" with section title "FRIDAY's Commands"
end tell
-- full date
set todays_date to date string of (current date)
-- day
set todays_day to weekday of (current date) as string
-- time
set t to time string of (current date)
-- month
set m to month of (current date) as string
-- time and day

say todays_date
end if

end if

tell application this_process

Now, the code above only works when I run FRIDAY on Script Editor but it DOES NOT WORK when I save FRIDAY as an application and run it.
Script Editor and my application(FRIDAY) have accessibility, in fact FRIDAY has full disk accessibility. But still it cannot send keystrokes.
I am keep getting this ERROR:
System Events got an error: FRIDAY is not allowed to send keystrokes.
Accessibility:
Full Disk Access:
Automation:
If you could help me solve this problem, I would really appreciate it, thank you!
else ifconstruct in AppleScript which seems to apply to your situation. See computers.tutsplus.com/tutorials/… It would allow you to delete some lines and do the same thing. Sorry to digress, carry on! – Quinacrine
