Here's the worthless Folder Action script I want to write. I tried writing it a back when Folder Actions came out, but couldn't get the Finder to cooperate. Now it might and I'm too busy to try.
I keep tabbed folders along the bottom of my screen. They are small icon view and 1 or 2 columns of nearly even rows. I want an added file (typically an alias) to adjust the window size so that all the icons are visible and then move the window back to its tabbed position.
In fact, I wouldn't mind it if, when a non-alias was added, the file was put back onto the desktop instead. That could stop accidental drags to my alias folders. ;)
I'll gladly praise anyone who writes it for me. ;)
