Fortunately, most of the commands in Akua and Jon's to duplicate and get
around the hobbled classic Finder shouldn't be necessary in OSX,
although a
'deleteFile' without going to the trash would be a nice addition to the
Finder.
This is there via terminal do script with command "rm path_to_file_here"
I understand what you are saying, but with Unix, AS is a bit more
powerful...
And Akua's List suite, useful as it is, can all be replicated in
vanilla AppleScript.
There's lots more that would be great, but those are my top 10 essential
osaxen-that-should-be-built-in.
