Here's some more good reading:  :-)

tell application "Finder"
tell (every disk whose local volume is false and name is not "Network")
if (it exists) then
set listing to its name
else
set listing to {}
end if
end tell
end tell

And pushing the "Ouch!" factor to its limit, anyone for a thoroughly perverse, one-line version of that? ;-)


tell application "Finder" to tell (a reference to (disks whose local volume is false and name is not "Network")) to set listing to name of item (((exists) as integer) + 1) of {{name:{}}, it}
