Walk Folders on JUST Finder Windows


  • Subject: Walk Folders on JUST Finder Windows

Greetings!

I have a recursive script for tiling Finder windows that works well . . . until the Finder runs out of memory. Thus I decided to give Jon's Commands "Walk Folders" a try. It works well too, but it sees applications as folders even when using the "only folders" parameter:

set fl to walk folders theFiles with script foo with using folders without using files and invisibles

Does anyone have a solution for convincing it to only process finder windows--as "theFiles"--before it starts going through its statements? Even if I can get it to not process app package contents once it starts the "foo" script that's going to add a lot of unnecessary overhead because it starts at the inner most depths of a package i.e. "mail.app:contents:mac os:"

Thanks!
