Hi, Ed.

What I'd do is use Unix's "tail" command on the log, and then hunt through that to find the completion command with grep. (You can execute a shell script with applescript without much trouble -- that's what the lines that run "sleep" do.

Alternatively, you could use AppleScript to read/parse the log, but that'd probably be more difficult.

Regarding the log: alas, no. At present you can't make it less verbose, but I'll log that as an suggestion for the future.

Does that help?
