All I can coax is a list with one item "item1\ritem2\ritem3\ritem4".
I am trying to get a list of 4 items.
When the string is compiled, the /r is changed to a return or line feed
character.
So enter the following:
set foo to "item1\ritem2\ritem3\ritem4"
set text item delimiters to "\r"
text items of foo
Compiling (checking syntax) changes it to
set foo to "item1
item2
item3
item4"
set text item delimiters to "
"
text items of foo
Running it then returns
{"item1", "item2", "item3", "item4"}
