Looking to set the Blob Brush as the active tool

[Kernzy]

Hello all,

I'm looking to create a script that leaves the user with the Blob Brush as the active tool.
I couldn't find any documentation or examples of this so I figured I would resort to tribal knowledge!

Thanks!

app.selectTool("Adobe Blob Brush Tool")

Thanks so much! Are you aware of a resource that lists the tools by name?

here's an initial list, I've see another thread with a newer list but I can't find it
