Thanks Barbara. I had hoped to not involve System Events, but may have
to after all.
Come to think of it, I think Marc Glasgow had a script that deleted
cashes/history/whatever for several browsers. I think it only involved
the Finder. Below is part of his announcement this January:
For anyone paying attention, I have a script (since 1996!) I keep
updated that removes browser cache files, history files, etc, called
SuperPrivacy. This is to notify all interested parties that I have
posted version 5.02 (for OS X) to my website, and it is now available
for download. This new version supports cleaning up after:
MS Explorer v5.x
Netscape Communicator v7.0.x
AOL for OS X
and now Safari (GM Beta, the current release).
This version does not require any modifications for user domain
names/user names/etc (extracts it from the path to preferences
folder), nor any OSAXEN. Compatible with AS 1.8.1 and later, haven't
checked it against prior releases.
SCRIPT VERSION (for us programmer types):

STAND-ALONE APP (for your consulting clients, etc):

The OS X version currently does not dig into cookies yet, for I am
still checking into how to devour .plist files suitably to do so
without annoying the machine. Anyone who wants to show me how, I would
be very appreciative.
