Hi, list.
I'm quite new to scripting, so I'd gratefully appreciate the input:
I wrote (recorded, rather) a little script that'll keep a folder clean using
AppleScript v.1.1.3 (I'm running OS8.6 on a Mac8100/100) and saved it as an
application. It goes thus, as copied and pasted from Script Editor (line
numbers were added here for reference in this post):
1 tell application "Finder"
2 activate
3 select folder "To Print"
4 open selection
5 select files of folder "To Print" of startup disk
6 delete selection
7 empty trash
8 close container window of folder "To Print" of startup disk
9 end tell
Now someone on the network starts storing aliases, folders and what have you
in this folder so the app will inevitably leave things other than files in the
folder. My question is: how do you modify line 5 to get it to include folders,
apps, aliases, etc. or just plainly any items for that matter?
Thanks!
Luis E. Hernandez
