I'm unsure of what I'm bumping into here. All my attempts to create an empty text file using the touch command in a "do shell script" fail with a permission error. The command, "touch /Users/j/Desktop/bud.txt," works fine in Terminal.
Anyone know of workarounds? It has to work in AppleScript for my needs.
set x to path to desktop folder from user domain set y to (POSIX path of x) & "bud.txt" do shell script "touch y" -->error "touch: y: Permission denied" number 1
Thanks J |
