If you were to look in Radar for my reported Finder bugs, you should see that I found this error and got it fixed some years back. ;)

It all came about from a MacScript thread where we were trying to hide a bunch of apps. I tried this script which now works but didn't then:

property dontHide : {"__tt"} -- Tilery
tell application "Finder"
activate
set visible of every process whose file type = "APPL" and creator type is not in dontHide to false
end tell

Just trying to keep Sal from getting *all* the credit. ;)
