Well, there is no "New File scripting addition". How can I do this? I'd like to avoid scripting to a third application to get the job done (that is, if it's not built in, I'll probably have to write my own command).


I believe that's been folded into the StandardAdditions.osax as

choose file name

(verb) Get a new file reference from the user, without creating the file (from the User Interaction suite, defined in StandardAdditions.osax)

But actual creation of the file is up to you. You could use "open for access" in the "file read/write" suite also in the StandardAdditions.osax
