don't specify the file as an alias; specify it as a file or an item

e.g.,

try

tell app "finder" to delete file "someFilePathString"

end try





>> tell application "Finder" to delete alias "Apple:Desktop
>> Folder:Hotlist.html"
>>
>> Problem is, I can't even compile the script because the file does not (yet)
>> exist and Script Debugger reports as such and can't compile.
>> How to fix this?
