In Applescript, how can I get to the Help menu Search field, like Spotlight?

Question

In OS X, in order to quickly get at menu items from the keyboard, I want to be able to type a key combination, have it run a script, and have the script focus the Search field in the Help menu. It should work just like the key combination for Spotlight, so if I run it again, it should dismiss the menu. I can run the script with Quicksilver, but how can I write the script?

Answer 1

Here is the script I came up with.

tell application "System Events"
    tell (first process whose frontmost is true)
        click menu "Help" of menu bar 1
    end tell
end tell

Answer 2

Alternatively, hit cmd-? and don't mess with the script. :-) That puts key focus in the help menu's search field.
