Is there any way to control width of, for example, the name column?


I took a look at one of my scripts that does that sort of thing
and found a handler containing these lines of code ...

tell application "Finder"
set winRef to (window of folderAlias)
set current view of winRef to list view
ignoring application responses
. . .
set width of column name column of list view options of winRef to 300
. . . 
end ignoring
end tell

I am currently using this in Lion (10.7.5), but I have used it in 10.8 and 10.9
without error.
