[comp.sys.mac.hypercard] Is there an XCMD for "Export Paint..." ?

ruddd@prlhp1.prl.philips.co.uk (Dennis Rudd) (06/06/91)

I want to use the command   doMenu "Export Paint..."   in a script, 
but without involving the user of the stack in the dialog which asks 
for the name of the file which is to be created.  Does anyone know 
of an XCMD for doing this, in which the file name can be supplied 
as an argument??

[I know there's an XCMD for creating a stack which works this way.]

All advice gratefully received.

Thanx,  Dennis

Try the 2.0 and newer command Rexport paint to file fileNameS
