I have a list of alia, some contain Unicode (Japanese) characters. When I
try to coerce them to a Unicode string I get:
Can't make alias "Mac HD:Desktop: fv desktop áéúó´n@ö ??且丗三.txt" into a
Unicode text.
-1700
This is what I'm doing:
set temp to (temp & (item i of AliasList as Unicode text) & return)
When I try to stringify the entire list, like so...
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to {return}
set temp to (AliasList as Unicode text)
...it builds the string up to the first item that contains Unicode, then it
fails silently.
Is there another method to extract the string out of an alias in an
Unicode-savy way?
Greetings
Christian
