In Applescript, I have the following: do shell script /Applications/Vidalia.app/Contents/MacOS/Vidalia do shell script /Applications/Firefox_3.6/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin

In Applescript, I have the following:

do shell script "/Applications/Vidalia.app/Contents/MacOS/Vidalia"
do shell script "/Applications/Firefox_3.6/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin -P Anon"

It works perfectly, but the issue is that it will wait for Vidalia to be CLOSED before it will then launch Firefox. I would like to open both at the same time with one script. I don’t really understand the language and all of my searching has turned up nothing. How can I get these open simultaneously? That is the point, after all.

Any help is much appreciated.

    Try using the open command to launch the applications:

    do shell script "open /Applications/Vidalia.app"
    do shell script "open /Applications/Firefox_3.6/Firefox.app --args -P Anon"
