Look harder. Just read everything there is to read on the sourcebook site on
AppleScript in OS X, and you'll come upon it fairly quickly. At lest, I'm
assuming what you want is detail, since if what you're looking for is code
that works, you rather brush off the suggestion above (very courteously).
Did you TRY it? It WORKS. And it's very fast. i.e. immediate. You can stop
bemoaning HyperCard and just use it. Did you look up 'path to' in the
Standard Additions dictionary? It tells you most of what you need to know.
