Do you like Growl? I do, I think it's a neat extension for MacOSX. I was curious as to how to communicate with it. Many of the Cincom engineers replicate packages between store repositories. I run my replicator in the background and I thought it'd be neat if it growled at me whenever it had something to replicate... and now it does.
The package "Growl" is in public store. It'll only work on MacOSX and only if you have Growl installed. It uses AppleScript to communicate with it. Hooking Growl up to my replicator was simply a matter of changing what Logging class was being used (instead of the usual FullTranscriptLog) in StoreForGlorpReplication.
