script BOMArchiveHelper?

In panther we can now use built in archiving from the menu. As usual? Apple has not made it scriptable as such. I think it uses ditto, which you can call with a doscript BUT then you don't get the user feedback of whats going on. I would like to script it where I get the feedback and I am not using stuffit because I need to do large files. (eg can go > 2 gigs)

Has anyone used UI scripting to make it work? And what would the syntax for "selecting" the folder to be archived be?
