How to run script when app opens or closes?

[FocusAndEarnIt]

Hi all, wrote a script (AppleScript) that does a very specific function that I run every time I open a specific app. I would like to automate this. How do I do this? I also wrote a script that essentially undoes the function that I applied when I close the app.

I've tried searching for an app that does the function and automates this all together, but no dice.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Merge the two scripts into one. What's in the scripts?

Keyboard Maestro can perform actions (includes running scripts) when an application activates or deactivates. It is a large and complex app (so steep learning curve), but is the best for Mac automation.
