Re: Finder locks while do shell script is running

Richard,

Attached pictures won't go to the list. You can either post it on the web somewhere, or give a better description of your shell command. Why not just post it?

Cheers,
Joe Weaks

I want to a UNIX command from my Applescript. The command takes several

shell script I get an AppleEvent timeout plus the Finder is frozen. I
get the Spinning wheel in the Finder and I can not quit it until the
UNIX command completes.

The following snapshot shows the Error box as well as part of my
Applescript code
