This application note describes how to use Apple Events, which are high-level message-based methods of interapplication communication (IAC), and the program-to-program communications (PPC) Toolbox, which is a lower level, stream-oriented form of IAC.
Both of these forms of communication work only on Apple Macintosh systems running Mac OS 7 or later, and both require you to enable Program Linking in the File Sharing Control Panel.
Refer to the Application Note for more information.
