Thanks for the tutorial. On a similar note, I’ll need to implement audio recording functionality to my Video Editor (I’ve just ordered a cheap 3.5” jack microphone for testing today), and thought that interfacing with the built in app SoundRecorder using BMessages (instead of hey) might be a better and faster solution for me. The challenge then becomes redirecting Sound Recorder GUI button messages to my app. Just like with hey, I would interrogate button names and then modify the message targets. Should work in theory …

Thank you for sharing your experience.

I believe, hey scripting is the most underappreciated feature of Haiku. It really deserves more attention.

I tried to use Hey as documented to do basic updates to the picture display utility. I was not able to reproduce many features in the documentation. I don’t know whether some features are not documented, or whether the hey command line usage is too complicated for my brain. Hopefully you have better luck.
