| Hi Nathan,
I rather us would use "list files" in the satimage sax. But if you want to use unix, you might try do shell script "cd ~;find ~/Desktop"
Cheers Thomas
Hi All, When I run a script like the below from Terminal it is instant and successful. find ~/Desktop .
Even though it returns a gazillion files, it's really fast.But, when I run that from an AppleScript like below, it takes a very, very long time and eventually gives a permissions error.
do shell script "find ~/Desktop ."
Can someone help me figure out what's going wrong and how to fix it?Mit freundlichen Grüßen Thomas Fischer
