I wrote the following script, accidentally omitting "text returned of"
set file_Name to display dialog "Name the file." default answer ""
tell application "Finder"
make new file at the desktop with properties {name:file_Name}
end tell
Instead of throwing an error, it created a file.
--> document file "7T r" of folder "Desktop" of folder "michelle" of
folder "Users" of startup disk of application "Finder"
The file name in the result is a dot, a capital O with a circumflex, a
capital Y with an umlaut, and a lower-case r.
On the desktop, it's two Chinese characters (Kanji or Hanja, depending
on whether you name them in Japanese or Korean).
