I was following a topic on the discussion boards about file "busy status".
It seems like:
try
set busyStatus to busy status of (info for x)
if busyStatus is "true" then display dialog "Not quite done with " & x
end try
Fails whether the item is a file or folder, or whether it is the destination or origin. I have tried every combination my brain could come up with to try to tickle that property to true. I just can't figure it out. One clever guy made a workaround that sniffs whether there is a "Copy" window open. This works 99% of the time. I also noticed the thread about checking if file size has changed.
What is busy?
