Hi all!
I was looking a one-line script to check whether an item is a file or a
folder, then (if folder) list its contents.
####################################
set I_dont_know_if_is_folder to posix path of alias "HD:I am a file"
do shell script "cd '" & I_dont_know_if_is_folder & "'; ls -R"
####################################
I thought the "cd" command would throw an error if the item was not a
directory, but it simply stops responding until force-quit.
