Scripting Quark 5.01 from Jaguar

Hello everyone,

I am trying to create a script that runs in OS X (10.2) and accesses
"Classic" applications. The script is started by dropping a folder into a
folder which has an "on adding folder items" action attached. I've found a
way of dealing with the fonts for the classic environment but in getting the
properties from a Quark document I receive what appears to be class
problems. For example, if I say:

tell document 1
set docWidth to {page width}
end tell

it will return: {<<data FXHM03060000>>}

Does anyone know what the problem may be or is anyone trying to script
classic apps in X?

Troubleshooting the "On Adding" folder actions leaves a lot to be desired to
say the least. Thank you in advance for any suggestions.
