Message: [QUOTE="John Joyce, post: 4553971"] It might be worth your time to check out Automator actions or AppleScript more before creating daemons. If you use the AppleScript method there is definitely a way to send a file to an app and then take the result and send it to a Ruby file. You don't necessarily have to leave the Ruby process running, but you can. Depends what you want to do. The trouble might be, OS X applications must have AppleScript enabled in them. Not everything in the app will be available to you, but passing a file should be painless and easy. Depends on the app though. [/QUOTE]
