Thanks Paul,
I knew there was a way of manipulating the POSIX class, but my SA
dictionary. Only shows this:
Class POSIX file: A file object specified with a POSIX (slash)-style
pathname.
Properties:
POSIX path 'file' [r/o] -- the POSIX (slash)-style path of any
file or alias object
I simply could not coerce that underlined object in my brain to get
the 'POSIX file' method you reminded me of below.
Is there something wrong with my dictionary, or am I just not reading
the first line (Class POSIX file:) properly? Note that it is in black
text (i.e., it does not appear in green as my app keywords do), which
I took to just be a header line, not a command.
Thanks -- (a confused)JA
TN2065: do shell script in AppleScript
<http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn2002/tn2065.html>
... documents, not only the 'do shell script' command, but all of the
extra's
that go along with using it ( posix path, quoted form ) and some of the
tricks required in special cases.
( This document seems to have gotten bumped down in the documentation
organization as more AS & ASS documents have been produced. It
really ought to have a more prominent placement! )
