How may we open the window of a package (Show package Contents) from AppleScript ?

This was discussed some time ago. I believe it's not possible:

set p to (path to desktop as text) & "some.app:Contents:"
tell application "Finder"
	open p
	set c to container of item p
	open c
end tell

OMM, the 'open c' command actually launches the application. I have not tried this with shell command 'open'.



Thanks

I missed the old thread.

As the package was an rtfd document, I found a workaround:

set p2d to path to desktop as text
set paquet to p2d & "azaz.rtfd:"
tell application "Finder"
	set paquet to paquet as alias
	set oldName to name of paquet
	set dossier to (container of paquet) as text
	set ext to name extension of paquet
	set newName to text 1 thru -(2 + (count of ext)) of oldName
	set name of paquet to newName
	open folder (dossier & newName)
	set name of alias (dossier & newName) to oldName
end tell
