Labels and tags ?


  • Subject: Labels and tags ?
  • From: Jean-Christophe Helary <email@hidden>

I have a script that does

tell application "Finder"
	set project_folders to make folder at project_location with properties {name:project_name}
	set label index of project_location to 6
	set label index of project_folders to 6
end tell

Both the parent folder and the child have a label that show current projects are stored there.

In Yosemite, the backward compatibility makes the script work in a way, but since all the Finder organization revolves around tags (side bar etc), using labels reduces functionality.

I'm looking for a way to do something similar to the above, but with tags, which does not seem to be trivial.

Are there commonly accepted practices regarding tag manipulation in Applescript?
