Remember those speed tests I was doing? I just noticed that all the new folders my script was creating now had an unwanted toolbar/sidebar in Snow Leopard. In this situation, it is simply unnecessary and, in fact, visually distracting and confusing for all these folders to have a toolbar/sidebar.

I first tried using 'set toolbar visible ... to false', but I only got an error. It seems the window must be open for this to work. So I used ...

open winRef
set toolbar visible of winRef to false
close winRef

It works, but there are two problems:
1. The speed is reduced from just under 2 files/sec to a miserably slow 1 file/sec or less, because,
2. As the script runs there is now a repeating unnecessary visual distraction of a folder window appearing, its toolbar/sidebar shrinking into non-existance, then disappearing.

I am planning to bug-report this. Anyone want to comment first?
