========================

Is there an easier way to do that ?
Is there a more ASly way to do that ?

Here is my first pass at it.

set project_location to choose folder
display dialog "Enter the name of the folder to be created" default answer ""
set project_name to text returned of the result

tell application "Finder"
set project_folders to make folder at project_location with properties {name:project_name}
end tell

set parameters_data to "whatever"

set parameters to open for access file ((project_folders as text) & "parameters.txt") with write permission
write parameters_data to parameters
close access parameters
