Hey people, I have never written a script for OSX, I was hoping you could
help me.
--
The following is a script that I use on os9.2 that works. When I try and use
it on OSX it doesnt do anything.
All the script does is rename files when they are dropped on the dropplet.

on open fileList
tell application "Finder"
--set sourceFolder to choose folder
set fileList to every item of the selection
repeat with afile in fileList
set fileList to name of afile
set fileList to text from character 8 to -1 of fileList
set name of afile to fileList
end repeat
end tell
end open
