Are you quite sure that either POSIX path or 'do shell script' existed in OS
10.0 (AppleScript 1.5.5 if you're lucky)? I don't believe that either of
them did. The whole reason he wants help is because of 10.0, which was not a
complete OS. None of this is going to work. jut forget about 10.0 and error
out of it.
