Re: Making a folder in the user's library

I want to make a folder, "myFolder", in the current user's Library/Application Support folder, creating the Application Support folder, if necessary. I know how to script the Finder to make folders on the desktop, but I'm stuck when working in the library.

I'm having problem dealing with (1) accessing the library folder and (2) testing for and creating folders several levels deep. How do I do this?

You could begin with this routine [no break]:

try
((path to application support from user domain) & "myFolder" as string) as alias
on error
tell application "Finder" to make at (path to application support from user domain) with properties {name:{"myFolder"}} new folder
set aPath to result as alias
end try


Kind regards,
