List folder will intermittently crash the caller when given a file
instead of a folder (either a path string, file or alias). Try this:
repeat 10 times
list folder "path to a file somewhere"
end
I realise that list folder isn't meant to be passed a file, but that
brings up a separate point about the ever-changing coercion to alias
behaviour. In any case, an error would be nicer than a crash.
Mac OS X 10.2.4 / AppleScript 1.9.1
Confirmed here on several machines, even on:
try
repeat 10 times
list folder alias "path to a file somewhere"
end repeat
on error
return
end try
Fatal crash. Damned!
