To be more specific, the following sample script which was found on
your website crashes Eudora (v.5.2 on OSX) at least half the time,
and always fails to put all the data into the fields (it does handle
some of it sometimes).
Yes, it boils down to the fact that it crashes (here every time) at
the first attempt to set a field.
set s to "1/1/1904"
set _data to "" & (current date) - (get date s)
tell application "Eudora"
set _file to a reference to nickname file "Eudora Nicknames"
set _nickname to make nickname at end of _file with data _data
tell _nickname
set its field "name" to _data
end tell
end tell
I see I do mention crashes at my site, but I thought we'd got that
fixed. It's a while since I looked at this. I have the crash logs,
so I'll report it and ask what's happening.
In the meantime you might like to look at
<
http://www.bd8.com/eudora_scripts/> and download "Nickname
Example.bin" which builds a record from a nickname. It needs some
further refinement.
