I want to thank everyone for their help. It's been very weird.

1. I tried a single-liner script (tell application "Terminal" to do script "cd /") and it didn't work.
2. My partner came into my office with her G3 firewire PowerBook.
3. We tried the one-liner script on her machine. It worked.
4. Back to the G4. It didn't work.
5. Quit Terminal and Script Editor.
6. Restarted Script Editor. Typed in the one-liner. It worked. (What's weird is that, in my previous struggles, I had restarted the computer and the script still hadn't worked...)
7. Went to the G4 PowerBook. Quit Terminal and Script Editor. Typed in the one-liner. It worked.
8. Same thing on the beige G3.
9. Entered in the multi-line program. It worked.

I don't know what to say, and I don't know why things started working. But they do. Must be your good vibes.

Thanks,

Kris
