it seems that the folder action does not kick in if a file is
deleted, and replaced by a new file with the same name thru non-
finder methods (a java app is writing to the watched directory)
can anyone confirm or provide further advice?
Interestingly, I've been experiencing something similar.
I have a situation where files are being uploaded to a server folder
using curl, and the folder has a folder action script attached. The
script sometimes doesn't pick up on a file that's uploaded and I
can't quite debug under what circumstances files are being missed,
but I've wondered if it has something to do with curl using a
temporary file name and then renaming the file once upload is complete?
