Thanks, I remember hearing about such a thing, but I hadn't searched my archives for the reference.

However, I tend to be reluctant to add more extensions to my System. There are so many already, and it's such a hassle when one of them is causing trouble, and my old iMac takes long enough to start up as it is. And it seems that the Extension Manager itself is one of the more crash-prone parts of the System.

I know there's Conflict Catcher, but I haven't sprung the money for it yet, and even if I did, there would be yet another nonstandard addition to my System, no?

Anyway, for the add - trim clipping name Folder Action Script, I still like the Pop-Up Window idea, since the pop-up tab tends to be more accessible when dragging from an application window than folder icons.

But I do think I'll give the Folder-Actions-Plus a try, anyway, for some other things.

Thanks again!

Note: For some reason, a folder has to be open for its Folder

With Eric Grants Folder Actions Plus extension, folder no longer have to be
open to execute a folder action script.
