I'm just about at my limit for posting this session, but if I don't see
any responses I'm sure I can help you out. What is priority #1?
I basically glossed over it so didn't see whether or how well it currently
works. I already automate uploads with Fetch from one of several text
editors viewing the result in whichever browser is open (if html or text
upload) and update the permissions if a cgi/perl file.
One minor thing which lept out at me was the metaphorical equivalent of
clubbing somebody to death with a loaded uzi...using Stuffit Deluxe for
basic archive creation. Use DropStuff instead.
To a dyslexic like myself the wording seems wackburds but so it goes.
-- --------------------------------------------------------------------
-- this may ask you to locate the Application, so use alternate method
-- --------------------------------------------------------------------
tell app "Finder" to open aliasList using app "DropStuff"
set result's name to "myArchive.sit"
-- --------------------------------------------------------------------
-- this finds and processes the target with DropStuff wherever it may
-- be regardless of its name or version.

tell application "Finder" to open aliasList using application file id
"DStf"
set result's name to "myArchive.sit"
