Aha... so the 'get' is needed. I always thought
'get' was optional in AppleScript; I guess
Eudora uses it in a coercive way. :) Thanks for
the tip!
Unfortunately 'get' is becoming less and less
optional under the alien rigime. In the case
above an explicit coercion is, and probably
always has been, necessary, but whereas it was in
the good old days possible to tell the Finder to
item 1 of selection
it is now necessary to get
item 1 of (get selection)
and this is a great stride backwards.
