You should be able to do something like:
tell application "Fetch 4.0"
open shortcut "my shortcut" of shortcut window "Fetch Shortcuts"
end tellThe best way to learn how to script Fetch is to press the Record button in the Script Editor, and then perform the actions you want by hand. Fetch will generate a script for those actions.

You've recommended many times to have Script Editor record your actions to AppleScript but - I'm sure I'm doing something wrong here - it doesn't seem to be recording when I click Put Files. It records new transfer window with properties but then nothing else.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks

Are you actually going through with the upload, or just pressing the Put Files... button?

Heya,
Im preparing an applescript to do some ftp uploads and I was wondering, what would be the proper way to use an already existing Fetch shortcut?
right now im just using
try
tell application "Fetch x"
put url user&":"&pass&"@"&host item FileName
end tell
end try
if you hadnt guessed, this is my first day of applescripting, and i havent really found a good interface discussion of using fetch w/ applescript. Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Justin Cook
