Anyway (and I think this is a little off-thopic), I'd like to know the
_real_ differences (appart from verbosity) between your line:

set _container to "" & text items 1 thru -2 of f & ":"

And the mine:

set folder_ to text items 1 thru -2 of (thisFile as text) & "" as text

Paul has already pointed out that adding "" to the end of a string is perfectly pointless and ineffectual.

If you convert the alias to a string right at the beginning you don't need to kepp on converting it in every line.
