I’m making an alias to a folder of scripts at the user’s root level.
Most of the time this script works, but sometimes I get an error
that says “Can’t make class <<alia>> error.
The line that is erroring is inside a Finder tell block that says:
make new alias file at folder (alias "Macintosh
HD:Users:jim:Library:Scripts:Applications:") to "Macintosh HD:Jim
Scripts:Script Menu:Illustrator:" with properties {name:"Adobe
Illustrator 10"}
Your 'to' parameter should be a Finder reference or AppleScript alias
value, not a string. Not that you should really be dumping scripts
at / anyway; use ~/Library/Scripts for per-user scripts and /Library/
Scripts for system-wide ones with permissions set appropriately, and
they should all show up in the Script menu automatically.
