I just said ...

But, I can still use ...

tell application "System Events" to set value of property list item |ArchiveLastKnownLocation| of property list file (prefsFile as text) to the result

without error.

No I can't! It does not error, but it fails to write unless the bars are replaced with double-quotes.

So ... what's going on here?
