Hi,

What would be causing a “Stack Overflow”? Happens before display dialog line.

As applied to a folder named “untitled folder 3"

tell application "Finder"
	activate
	delay 0.2
	beep
	set myName to "" # clear myName
	try # Deal with All Conditions Met, Execute Actions with no selection
		set myFile to the selection as alias
		set myName to the name of myFile
	display dialog "myFile = "&myFile&return&"myName = "&myName
end try
end tell
if myName contains "ƒ" then set myName to "" # don't add "ƒ" if it's already there
if length of myName ≠ 0 then # length of name of file selected
	set the name of myFile to myName & "ƒ"
end if
delay 0.2
if length of myName = 0 then
	tell application "Finder" to activate # re-activate Finder, so Keyboard Maestro macro will respond
	delay 0.1
	tell application "System Events"
		keystroke "a" using {option down, command down} # deselect all
		delay 0.2
		keystroke "q" using {option down} # activate open finder 2
	end tell
end if # length of myName

TIA,
