Shane, thanks so much for this script, it looks like exactly what I was hoping for. I don't pretend to understand all of it, but it does the job. Would the modification you suggest below, to let it follow sim links, break anything with normal folders? Thanks again!

Now I know the answer to a question which puzzled me :
the script doesn't scan the contents of folders pointed to by symbolic links which I use heavily.

Try changing the line:

set end of theFolders to anItem

to:
set end of theFolders to anItem's URLByResolvingSymlinksInPath()
