Read an alias file from AppleScript


  • Subject: Read an alias file from AppleScript
  • From: Neil Faiman <email@hidden>

Should 'read file "foo"' work when foo is an alias file to a text file? I could swear that this used to work (famous last words), but when I try it now, I get "End of file error". (If I open "foo" in BBEdit, I get the text file that it is an alias to, as I would expect.)

Thanks,

	Neil Faiman
