shell script 'touch' problem

G'day scripters

As the installer for GeeThree iMovieHD 6 add-ons no longer works with Lion, I thought I'd write an installer for myself.

I find the extras become corrupted after a while, so wanted an installer to keep them updated.

The following second line works in Snow Leopard, but not in Lion.

Can someone set me straight on what's required please?

Regards

Santa

if not (exists (ptl & "Preferences:com.apple.iLife08.plist") as text) then

do shell script "touch /Library/Preferences/com.apple.iLife08.plist"

set theFlag to true

end if
