thread.
Exactly. And because there was an objection to the fact that there
might be a name conflict (although such a possibility is extremely
remote), I modified the script to create a uniquely named folder into
which to place the file.
The Temporary Items Folder is hidden, so there's no surprises for the
user, and the system handles that folder, so the script doesn't have
to do any cleanup.
It addresses every one of Skeeve's concerns and objections, and is
clean by any rational definition.
