i've encountered a funny thing with 'duplicate' a document
to put it short
if I script:
open an appleworks WP doc and then SAVE it
--open myFile
--save front document -- works ok
--close front document -- works ok
it actually makes a second file in its folder that confuses the
script if the script afterwards is set to duplicate the file
you can sse it if you watch the folder as a opened folder
a manual workaround is to have the folder open and choose the folder
so the 'extra' file appears and then disappears
a script workaround is to do this
close front document saving yes -- which saves but no close
close front document -- closes
then a duplicate command will be obeyed
even tried to set in delay 5 with the
--save front document -- works ok
--close front document -- works ok
but no help the extra file still confused the script when it
had to duplicate the file
is this normal ?
