Thank you. Jon: I want copyFile back ;-)

This works for me out of the box without any osaxen.

do shell script "/Developer/Tools/CpMac myfile"

I don't _care_ if I'm calling a Unix shell script. To a very large degree, I don't care what "language" or "environment" I'm calling from my AppleScript, if it gets the job done. The joys of osa.
