As something of an aside, am I the only one that is finding
AppleScript on 10.4.x to be buggy as hell? One project had to have
its entire focus changed due to System Events constantly crashing
when using folder actions and now I've got to a stage where I
assume the OS is at fault, not me (a naive position to take which I
discarded after about 3 to 6 months of scripting. BTW, I've only
changed to this approach when using AppleScript on 10.4.x,
everything else, it's still me that's wrong until categorically
proven otherwise).
I do hope that 10.4.3 fixes some of these issues.
If you have a reproducible way to crash System Events, please file a
Radar bug with the details. Even if you don't have a reproducible
case, you might file a bug with the crash reports (~/Library/Logs/
CrashReporter/System Events.crash.log).
Even when the system is at fault, it's possible that on investigation
there could turn out to be an easy way for you to avoid the crash.
And it's possible that your scenario is rare in some seemingly-small
detail that triggers a crash for you, but for hardly anyone else. In
that case, hoping is not nearly as good as filing bugs.
Cheers,
