Are these bugs?


  • Subject: Are these bugs?

Bug 1:
Mac OS 9.2.1 / AS 1.8.3:

return system attribute "vers"
--> 7 (Note: not called within a Finder tell block)

--------------

Bug 2:
Mac OS X 10.1.5 / AS 1.8.3:

return system attribute "sysv" >= 4096
--> ""

Wrapping the osax call in parens will obviously fix it:

return (system attribute "sysv") >= 4096
--> true

But this raises two points:
1) why is AS 1.8.3 this fussy when 1.7 was not;
2) why does this not error as it does under OS 9?
--> can't make true into a type class

--------------

Bug 3:
Mac OS X 10.1.5 / AS 1.8.3:

list folder (without invisibles) returns ".DS_Store" files. Don't these
qualify as invisible?
