You can see the entire script here:

I'm having a hard time getting the URL from the iCab window.
When I say:
tell application "iCab"
Activate 1
open FileSpec -- is path to a .webloc file
set the windowInfo to GetWindowInfo 1
-- close window 1
end tell
I'm getting a "parameter error" on the second pass. It seems that iCab is
opening the 2nd .webloc file in a background tab, which is how I have it
set. This may or may not be the cause of the error. Is it possible that
iCab's tabs are not responsive to scripting (too new)?
Even if I say "close window 1" between passes I still get the error. I have
to restart iCab to get rid of the error, and then only for 1 pass.
I'm trying to open all .webloc files in a folder and rename the files to
something recognizable. You can run this script in an open window to check
it out. You need at least 2 .webloc files in the front Finder window to make
it work.
Any advice welcome on optimizing this script. Maybe there is a way to
eliminate iCab altogether ant use URL Access, then it would work on all
webloc files regardless of the source.
