I had trouble with an error at this line (can't make [...] into type [event
code for alias list]):
set fldrs to folders of (selection as alias) as alias list
So I changed it to this, which seemed to do what I expected it to although
the Finder selection hadn't changed:
set thes to selection
set fldrs to {}
repeat with i in thes
if kind of (info for i as alias) is "Folder" then
set fldrs to fldrs & (i as alias)
end if
end repeat
Why is that? Thanks.
