It's a known limitation. "list folder" is deprecated anyway, use
'tell application "System Events" to get the name of every item of
folder Š' instead.
Indeed that's good to know, glad you point it out, thanks much Chris.
That said, and out of curiosity, how comes it seems to work here on
36-characters folder names:
list folder alias "emmanuel's hd30:Library:WSDev:spaces:9CAA9C92-
E822-4496-9F28-2FD1D9DAF2E7:"
--> {".DS_Store", "profile.xml", "services", "uploads.plist",
"users"}
That's a G4 with 10.4.9.
Intel/10.4.10
Because you coerced it to an alias and the pascal StringPtr was
hashed in the alias?
