At 09:21p -0600 12/24/2003, Lorin Rivers didst inscribe upon an electronic papyrus:

This simple shell command works swimmingly from the command line in Panther, yet does nothing when called from my AppleScript.

set this_path to "/Users/lrivers/Desktop/cabs/06369022.cab"
--try
do shell script "/sw/bin/cabextract " & this_path

What is cabextract? Does it require a terminal session? If so, then you may need to tell Terminal to do it.

512/203.3198 (m) 408/580.8588 (f)

Aren't those area codes a thousand miles apart? <g>

-boo
PS. Any feedback on BFO 1.5?
