Is there any way to use AppleScript (or something else) to query currently running applications for the filename and path of the current file that they have open? I know some applications show the filename in the window title which is script accessible, but this isn’t a solution as not all do, and hardly any show the path. I also know this is complex because not every application is document based.
Any suggestions on how to find the currently opened file/path in running Mac apps would be appreciated. Thank you!
