tell app "TextEdit" to save the front document in "~/junk.txt" as "junk.txt"

Oh my goodness. 'in' as in 'in which folder', not as 'in which file spec
path'? Thanks, JD. But maybe it also works with POSIX file paths as
suggested by someone else? I really did try a file path with 'quoted form'.
I'll check all this thoroughly a soon as I have a minute.

Oh my goodness indeed. Scripting TextEdit made me freak out the other day! I think it had something to do with...

tell application "TextEdit"
text of document 1 -->"Some real text."
end tell

--but...

tell application "TextEdit"
tell document 1
text -->text
end tell
end tell

And 'get' isn't the answer to this one. 'it's' works. Why? That's NMJ. [1]
