Hello,
I really don't use Applescript very offten but I have a need right
now. I would like to know how to do a file exists on a posix file
example:
set y to "/usr/sbin/installer"
set a to POSIX file y
if (the file a exists) then
display dialog " already exists"
end if
Thanks!

You can use System Events:
<script>
set y to "/usr/sbin/installer"
tell application "System Events" to set torf to exists file y
if torf then
display dialog " already exists"
else
display dialog " it does not exist"
end if
</script>
