Hi Andrew,
Is there a way to strip out just the name of the Application, this way it does not display the full path?

Thanks,
tom

How about:

tell application "Finder"
get every application file of folder "Macintosh HD:Applications"
end tell

It doesn't do recursive, so apps in subdirectories aren't listed, but that's
a simple addition to the script.

Hello,
I would like to get a list of all of the Applications in the
/Applications folder, but it appears that the Apple System Profiler is
not scriptable in Mac OS X. Does anyone have any suggestions or
examples on how I would go about getting this information.

Cheers,
tom
