In AppleScript if you have a handler that runs awhile how can you slow it down?
If you have an AppleScript that is running too fast and you would like to make sure that a particular area in your code has enough time to run before moving on to a new handler or area in your script you can deploy a delay
.
So for example take a display dialog command with a delay:
display dialog "foo"
delay 5
display dialog "bar"
