DragThing has a property that represents an icon. The data type for
this property is a <<data icns>>. I'm trying to read the contents of
an icns file on disk and set the property.
I can read the hex contents of the icns file into an AppleScript
variable as text but how do I end up with a variable that contains a
<<data icns>> ?
In all the examples I've seen of <<data either the script explicitly
contains the data without any variables:
<<data utxt20AC>>
or uses do script/run script to evaluate the data:
set temp to "<<data utxt20AC>>"
run script temp -- evaluates the data and returns the result
I want to use a variable that contains the data but not evaluate it.
Is there a way?
