Yes, pass the plist as stdin instead of via -p, then you also do not need to shell escape it.

So from Ruby, with ‘params’ being a ruby hash:

open("|"$DIALOG" -t#{token}", "w") { |io| io << params.to_plist }

OK. Making sense so far, but how is the window token defined, and is it necessary when using a custom nib?

The tokens is returned when you create an async dialog. This being a modal dialog, you don't need one.

got back what looked like a perfect xml response but with this at the end:

Received exception:undefined method

What text appears in the Console log when this happens?
