I've got some scheduled scripts that use lines like:
tell application "Finder" to open every item of folder "my:path:"
Then I fill the folder with aliases of the files I'd like opened at
future times/dates.
What I'd rather do, though, is tag the files with Spotlight comments
instead of creating a special folder to hold aliases. Unfortunately
the Finder's AppleScript implementation doesn't seem to treat "smart
folders" like real folders.
So, I've gotten as far as opening a saved search/smart folder, or just
running a Spotlight search without having created a smart folder
first, but I haven't been able to figure out how to actually open or
get a list of the found items.
Any suggestions?
TIA,
Michael
