Hi,

copy the following line on the Script Editor:

return clipboard info

on the Script Editor, paste it,

on the Finder (Tiger .11), select and copy an item,

go back to the Script Editor and run it;

and you will get:

{{string, 19}, {Unicode text, 38}, {«class hfs », 80}, {«class utf8», 19}, {«class ut16», 40}, {picture, 2942}, {«class icns», 159543}, {«class furl», 87}}

the first information (like in {string, 19} is the data class name, the second one is the length (19 characters in the string case).

I never get any answer on what is « class hfs » (even if I am able to decode some parts like file type creator type, etc.).

« class furl » is a string (probably without encoding) that can be changed to an alias (for example).

BUT, I never was able to reach any information from the Apple documentation (if this appears on one).

Emile

Where do you get that? I'm on Tiger. Sorry, I didn't mention. I can find an entry for "file" in Finder's dictionary, but none in Standard Additions.
