Q1:
I have a script application that runs another script.
When I doubleclick script 1 the script 2 runs regardless of absolute or
relative HFS path in script 1.
When I run it from Terminal or shell it only runs with the absolute HFS
path. If I set it to an relative HFS path suddenly I get error:
execution error: A ":" can't go after this some object. (-2740)
Is this a bug?
Q2:
This is some mysterious behavior. Say I have an application script starting
like this:
property prevWIP : missing value
set statusString to ""
if prevWIP is missing value then set statusString to "script edited"
etc
When I repeatedly run this script by doubleclicking it the statusString
variable does as expected (gets set to "") HOWEVER when I use "run script"
from a calling scriot the statusString variable does not get set to "".
Can anyone explain that oddity?
