I've got success with the script under VMWare on 10.8.3 when duplicating files in a folder the script is applied to ala the Finder.
Also sharing that folder with AFP, logging on to it and deleting or adding/removing files properly creates the index.
I'm outside the office now until tomorrow. I'll get the answers to the these tomorrow.
"xattr -p com.apple.quarantine path-to-your-script"?
"spctl -a path-to-your-script"?
Thanks for the quick response. I'm making a little hybrid UIWebView with some dynamic linking to content inside the bundle iOS app with some file sync capabilities for my CIO (for him to demo to his bosses) and help like yours is greatly appreciated when little pearls like this crop up.
Next beer's on me.
