I'm trying to write a script packing each of my iWork's documents in an archive file to get rid of the fact that recovering tools are unable to resurect the packages created by these applications.
I first tried the gzip tool but it sent a clear message telling that it can't apply on a folder (remember, a package is a disguised folder).
So, I moved to zip.
Alas, this time, the returned message is cryptic (at least for me).
The script is
set fichier to "AluIce250_4_vide:autour d'iWork'08:documents_Pages:Garamond vs Garamond - copie.pages"
do shell script "zip " & quoted form of POSIX path of fichier
Try this:
set ptd to path to desktop as text set source to quoted form of POSIX path of (ptd & "some") -- a folder set dest to quoted form of POSIX path of (ptd & "some.zip") do shell script "ditto -ck " & source & " " & dest
