macOS Help needed for simple Applescript

duckdealer said:

Hi I'm currently trying my best to learn and write a simple applescript. I basically want to open firefox with two new tabs, this bit I have managed but the part I am finding tricky is I want there to be a variable that if Firefox is already open then two new tabs are opened in the current window without relaunching the whole program again.

Is Firefox open?
Yes - two new tabs
No - launch Firefox, open two new tabs

I'm sure it's simple but I could really use some help.

Thanks

tell application "System Events"
	if (exists process "Terminal") then
		display dialog "Terminal is running"
		-- Make two new tabs in window 1 or current window
	else
		--  Activate Firefox
		tell application "Terminal" to activate
		-- Open two new tabs
	end if
end tell

tell application "Safari"
		if (count of windows) is 1 then
		make new document
	end if
end tell

Many applications also support the reopen command, which reactivates a running application or launches it if it isn’t running. If the application is already running, this command has the same effect as double-clicking the application icon in the Finder. Each application determines how it will implement the reopen command—some may perform their usual startup procedures, such as opening a new window, while others perform no additional operations.

tell application "Firefox"
   reopen
   --commands to open new tabs
   activate
end tell
