Hi,
(Power PC G4 OS X 10.3.8)
The following script to save an AppleWorks 6 file results in additional
characters at the front and back of the file that don't appear in a
manual save. The file being opened is an AppleWorks file previously
saved as HTML, in which I need to change a URL link, then re-save. It
opens, converting to text as an untitled document. Then I tinker and
try to save it back replacing the original HTML file. Besides the
crappy tinkering script, what am I doing wrong with the save part?
Thanks,
Andy Hurst
