  • Thread-topic: Why is it?

Half tongue in cheek,

Maybe applescript needs a new construct "with getting"

Then everything inside a "with getting"­"end  getting" pair is coerced.

The compiler synonym could be "really"

really get
    {year of d, month of d as integer, day of d} as text
end getting


:-)

> {year of d, month of d as integer, day of d} as text

> foo as text
