| After a few more experiments, it seems that using Finder's 'duplicate' is the only way to go. It preserves all of a folder's attributes such as bounds, view, list view columns. And it's necessary to preserve these attributes.
The problem is that little x at the right of the progress bar.
Surely, if I were clever enough, I could detect if the user cancelled the copy and do something about that. So, I tried ...
with timeout of 100000 seconds try duplicate itemList to targetDisk on error errText number errNr "Error = " & errNr & return & errText display dialog the result buttons {"OK"} default button 1 end try end timeout
Alas, clicking that little x does not error. It just stops 'duplicate' as if it had finished normally. The only solution left is to move the copy window off screen. Too bad. It's helpful to see progress and moving this window may be dangerous if not restored.
