but i cannot run it with an app-script unless i give the full path to emacsclient. its a good workaround, but i think its not general enough. i dont think that this functionality is something for a dotfile or a script you make again and again for your machines. i think its something basic thats needs to be available, like the full emacs app. what do you think?

i could try to implement it, in a local branch, and then submit a pull request. would that be of interest?

It seems to me that

emacsclient -a "" -c

does what you want, and you should be able to bind that to whatever
action/icon you wish.
