That must be in some alternate universe. A crash and a freeze are two very
different things. Using the terms interchangeably helps no one.
Anyway, now the OP is saying the script runs fine, to the end - it's just
Script Editor that's freezing afterwards. That's not very interesting to me
(esp. since I don't use Script Editor), so I'm not going to worry about it.
The important thing is that the running of the script to completion
demonstrates that the system Apple event bug is gone. m.
