Thanks, what I want to do is close a specific window in the finder. I have
tried

Tell application "System Events"
  close window "Dev"
End tell

  But then for an error NSReceiverEvaluationScriptErr: 4  :-( . "Dev" is the
name of the window in the finder which is of path "/Volumes/Dev".

Any idea's - I like the keystroke approach, but not sure how I get it to be
directed at a particular window.


What about

close front window of application "Application-Name"

For the System Events dictionary, you can use "Open a dictionary" in the File Menu (something like that) and if you use Tiger, use the new MenuItem Bibliotheque (something like that) from the Window Menu (Command-Shift-L) to make that window appears. A double click in the System Events entry opens its dictionary.


HTH,

Emile
