Instead of launching an application, how can we ask the Finder to
open the
package folder (via AppleScript, that is)? Thank you.
Something like this might work (tested on OS X). It opens the
contents folder.
tell application "Finder"
open container of container of application file id "POrg" -- Palm
Desktop
end tell
Or simply this:
tell app "Finder" to open folder "Contents" of application file id
"POrg"
That crashes my Finder 100% of the time, as does this:
tell application "Finder"
try
get folder "Contents" of application file id "POrg"
on error e
display dialog e
end try
end tell
There is no error returned since Finder is in no condition to return
anything, and the script continues to run after Finder crashes.
It seems to me it might be a problem with Palm Desktop specifically...
could it be?
I haven't got Palm so...
Otherwise, the one liner works fine for me on any other apps.
