Message-ID: <m2czg2vd8b.fsf@irreal.org> (raw)
I don't understand the urgent—or, indeed, any—need to eliminate
this call. I've been using it for years to populate an Emacs
buffer with the URL of the current page displayed in Safari. I
used to use osascript as recommended by those advocating
ns-do-applescript's removal but moved to ns-do-applescript when
osascript became unacceptably slow. That issue may have been
resolved but I've never felt the need to revisit the matter.
According the the 2020 Emacs survey, Mac users represent 26.6% of
Emacs users (https://emacssurvey.org/2020/) so it's hardly a niche
environment for Emacs. As macOS is the second largest user base, I
don't see how it hurts to make Mac users' life marginally easier.
