The 10.2.8 Finder duplicate will not work the usual way, the only way I can
get it to work is by leaving off the to <location> to save.  So the only
place it duplicates is in it's own folder.  While this is ok when I am
coping and moving to the same HD, but I need to duplicate the file to a
different network drive.  The shell command CP mangles the file in some way
and makes it unusable.
The path to current users only shows raw events and doesn't work at run
time.
Path to Documents shows raw events also, but that command still works, so I
just use: <sudo code>
Set foo to characters 1 thru -10 of (path to documents folder)
