I knew I'd hit this wall eventually, but I thought I could find some kind
of a fix by myself.
I have a script. It's a folder action script. It runs fine in Script Editor
under 9 and X.
But in 9's Finder, I get an Out of Memory error immediately. It sets a
variable, then tries to load a script file and dies.
I'm guessing that loading script files is not a memory- efficient thing.
So, the first question is HOW to I give AS more memory to work with? If the
script was a script application, I'd just up it's memory partition. But
it's a folder action, which must be a compiled script, which means I can't
do that.
I looked for an extension-that-was-really-an-app, but the AppleScript
extension was actually an extension.
Then I noticed the Folder Actions extension, which does have a SIZE
resource. Is this what I should change? I'm going to try it, but I'm
wondering if there's any pointers out there that are easier to do than
this.
