When activated manually, AppleWorks behaves flawlessly if Rosetta is
installed.
When driven by script, I discovered an oddity.
set theFile to (path to desktop as text)&"xxx.cwk"
tell application "AppleWorks 6"
activate
open file theFile
end
which worked flawlessly with other OSes, fails with error #-1700
Happily there is a workaround:
set theFile to ((path to desktop as text)&"xxx.cwk") as alias
tell application "AppleWorks 6"
activate
open theFile
end
I assumes that it's not a normal behavior.
(2) With 'old' OSes, the preferences file contained a property
describing the default path to save into.
Of course, the name was changed by 10.6.
More, this path was used when printing in PDF, now, even if the
default save folder is thisPath, Print to PDF send the file to the
desktop (at least it's what I get on my French system).
