This script, when run from Script Editor, succeeds in updating the
modification date of the folder. The significant line is line 2.
set fdr to "" & (path to current user folder) & "Library:Keyboard Layouts"
do shell script "cd; touch Library/Keyboard\\ Layouts"
set d to "" & modification date of (info for file fdr)
set tim to word -4 of d & ":" & word -3 of d & ":" & word -2 of d
display dialog tim
When run from Script menu it has no effect on the modification date.
If instead of
Library/Keyboard\\ Layouts
I write
'Library/Keyboard Layouts'
... it makes no difference.
I could guess at the source of yesterday's confirmed bug, but this
one is not so clear.
Again on the subject of Script Menu, why on earth can't it interact
with the user? For years there has been no problem having
application script menus and OSA Menu and OtherMenu interact and
behave properly, and now progress comes in the shape of this "flick
of the wrist" utility that's full of bugs and can't talk.
