Hi Burr, or another thing that could work would be to set up a shortcut key in MoI, say Alt+R and for the shortcut key give it a full path to a .js script file including the file extension, like: c:\scripts\myfile.js
Then from the other app you can write out that .js file and then send the MoI main window an Alt+R keyboard message to trigger it.
You could use something like AutoHotkey to trigger the keyboard message to MoI if your other program doesn't have a convenient way to trigger keystroke messages to a window.

I'm still rooting for python:-)
But know very little about any of this.
Python subprocess.call, and pass an argument to MoI ???:

I've never seen Dave's app before and so I searched a bit and realized that it indeed was a standalone app!
So, sorry everyone for the confusion. My assumption was based on what Max did with NodeEditor, which seems to work the way I described.

Thanks Michael. I can move along from that...
