Hi there. I have some scripts to copy a folder of files I have to backup
daily. For safety reasons beyond this ML, I have to stuff the files so they
don't interfere with the open files, which are the masters.
OK...
I was wondering how you stuff a folder. I have the path of the folder, but
you have to stuff an alias, and it can't change a folder into an alias. So
I am stuck.
First thing you do is GET RID of StuffIt Lite. It's VERY old
and VERY dated - and NOT very compatible with newer versions of the
Mac OS.
Second, get a copy of my DropStuff
(<
http://www.aladdinsys.com/dropstuff/index.html>) , which includes
the StuffIt Engine.
Third, grab my StuffIt Commands OSAX
(<
http://www.lazerware.com/software.html>) and script that.
