## Is this a replacement for SIMBL?

Yes, this is SIMBL-lite tailored specifically for TotalTerminal.

## BATTinit event

Installs TotalTerminal.bundle into running Terminal.app (/Applications/TotalTerminal.app is just a wrapper app for this script)

    tell application "Terminal"

        -- give Terminal some time to launch if it wasn't running (rare case)

        delay 1 -- this delay is important to prevent random "Connection is Invalid -609" AppleScript errors 

        try

            «event BATTinit»

        on error msg number num

            display dialog "Unable to launch TotalTerminal." & msg & " (" & (num as text) & ")"

        end try

    end tell

## BATTchck event

Check if TotalTerminal is present in running Terminal image.

    tell application "Terminal"

        -- give Terminal some time to launch if it wasn't running (rare case)

        delay 1 -- this delay is important to prevent random "Connection is Invalid -609" AppleScript errors 

        try

            «event BATTchck»

            set res to "present"

        on error msg number num

            set res to "not present"

        end try

        res

    end tell
