Reload Active URL in Firefox

#!/bin/sh
# Textmate command that uses AppleScript to switch to Firefox, reload
# the browser, and then switch back to Textmate
# I have this bound to Ctl-Opt-Command R

# Save: Nothing (or Current File is useful too)
# Input: None
# Output: Discard

osascript -e "
tell application \"Firefox\"

tell application \"System Events\"
	tell process \"Firefox\"
		keystroke \"r\" using {command down}
	end tell
end tell

Awesome, thanks!

Save yourself some escaped quoting and leverage osascript's ability to read from stdin. (HEREDOC if you want to mix interpreters with bash/sh.

#!/usr/bin/osascript

-- reload firefox using cmd + R

tell application "Firefox"
  activate
end tell

tell application "System Events"
  tell process "Firefox"
    keystroke "r" using {command down}
  end tell
end tell

-- no need to wait.

tell application "Textmate"
  activate
end tell
