I'm able to easily sort a list of folders but can't get the syntax to sort it in descending order. Anyone?
tell application "Finder"
set myItems to (sort myItems by modification date)
Doing a reverse on the list after I get it doesn't appear to do anything. : /
I happen to have a script that does exactly that. In two lines ...
get sort (get folders of sourceFolder) by modification date set folderList to (reverse of the result) as alias list
And I've never noticed any problem with it.
