Does anyone have an idea why this works

tell application "Terminal"
	do script " ls  > >(ls)"
end tell

and This fails


	do shell script " ls  > >(ls)"

Hi,

I’m not entirely sure what result you are trying to get, but you might find this page useful.

Best wishes

i’m trying to play with CocoaDialog, i’ve posted this useless command because the other command is so complex. this command is just a simplified concept of the problem i’m having.

Thanks for that link i found out that i’ve got to give it to bash as a string

This was the best i could come up with

do shell script " source ~/.profile
bash -c ' ~/.BackupHomeFolder > >(CocoaDialog progressbar --indeterminate  --title \"Rsync Backup\")
'"

I’m glad the link helped.
