Of course, when I attach the script to a folder to test it, it doesn't work.

Folder Actions are really pissing me off.

I feel your pain. They're buggy. When I first installed the GM of Jaguar and tried them I thought they were not working. It took six times before the Folder Action actually attached and worked.

The lack of a visual indication on the folder makes it even worse because until you test you don't know if it's "stuck" or not. Since that first time, it's been a hit and miss thing. Sometimes they attach, sometimes it takes two or three times. There is a real problem with Folder Actions. You're not imagining things. The problem is with reality, do not adjust your set. I've found that another drink often helps alleviate the annoyance, but it never seens to help the Folder Actions. The Jaguar has a few too many fleas for my liking.
