    <p>In general, these are handled through <em>Apple Events</em>. Specifically, your application will receive an <em>open document</em> event. How you would handle it depends on what type of application you are writing.</p> <p>If you're writing a document-based app, this is easy: the document controller receives an <code>openDocumentWithContentsOfURL:display:error:</code> message (or <code>openDocumentWithContentsOfFile:display:</code> for pre-Tiger systems), and will <a href="http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/ApplicationKit/Classes/NSDocumentController_Class/Reference/Reference.html#//apple_ref/occ/instm/NSDocumentController/openDocumentWithContentsOfURL:display:error:" rel="nofollow noreferrer">handle this accordingly</a>.</p> <p>For Cocoa apps that aren't document based, the application delegate will be sent an <code>application:openFiles:</code> message. If the delegate doesn't respond to that, it will try sending other messages until the delegate responds to one (<code>openTempFile:</code>, <code>openFiles:</code>, and <code>openFile:</code>, in that order).</p> <p><a href="http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/ScriptableCocoaApplications/SApps_handle_AEs/SAppsHandleAEs.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/20001239-1119823" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Here's the documentation</a> for handling Open Apple Events in Cocoa.</p> <p>For Carbon apps, I can't really remember the details (been a while since I've written Carbon code), but if I recall correctly, you would install an Apple Event handler for <code>kAEOpenDocuments</code> events with <code>AEInstallEventHandler()</code>. See <a href="http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Carbon/Reference/Apple_Event_Manager/Reference/reference.html#//apple_ref/c/func/AEInstallEventHandler" rel="nofollow noreferrer">the documentation</a> for more details.</p>

    1. COThanks! However in my case it's just a shell script (Python), is there a way to get it from there?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
