I have a folder action set up that runs the script file that is
dropped into it.
Basically it handles each file by reading it's contents and then
using "run script" command to run..
My problem is that to read the file, and execute it successfully it
needs to be run within a finder tell bloke.. (which isnt
actually necessary)
If I run the script without the folder action
(remove the "on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving
added_items" )
It runs fine without the finder tell bloke.. It's only when trying
to use folder actions that it fails..
So I guess my questions are..
1) is there some other method I should be using to execute the
script file that is added?
2) Is it possible that Finder would reduce the performance of the
script? Should I simply not worry about this?
Hello
I never used run script from a folder action script.
Is it really needed?
Wy not use the script as a handler in the folder action script?
For a lot of features, Finder is not the best tool. It would be
better to use System Events.
