Hi,
I'm just running into a little issue here.. I have a shell script where the path to the file contains a Space.. Int he terminal I simply wou go like this: File\ Name
However, when the command is in an AppleScript, as bellow then I get that there is an unknown identifier, wether I use "quote" signs or |vertical| signs
eg: do shell script "rm /Users/myaccount/Documents/My\ Folder"
How can I go around this ?
Frank
set s to "/Users/myaccount/Documents/My Folder"
do shell script "rm " & quoted form of s
