Re: avoiding repetition

Le 19 juil. 04, ` 07:00, email@hidden a icrit :

If I write:

--
duplicate {FolderA, FolderB} to FolderC with replacing
--

The 1st folder: FolderA is the only one to be copied

I am obliged to write instead:
--
duplicate FolderA to FolderC with replacing
duplicate FolderB to FolderC with replacing
--

Is it a known bug or an unknown from me, AS "feature"?

I think this is a relatively recent bug, where the replacing parameter
only works when a single entity is involved.

I haven't tried, but what if you make the destination a list as well?


-boo

You mean:
--
set mylist to (FolderA, FolderB)
duplicate mylist to FolderC with replacing
--
?

Yours
Bernard
