| So I am looking at the Mac Automation Scripting Guide on Folder Actions and there is a link to click to open the sample script in Script Editor:
When I click on the link, AppleScript Editor (or Script Debugger if I change the application setting in Firefox) opens with a copy of the script inserted, sic:
on opening folder theAttachedFolder -- Get the name of the attached folder tell application "Finder" set theName to name of theAttachedFolder -- Display an alert indicating that the folder was opened activate display alert "Attention!" message "The folder " & (quoted form of theName) & " was opened." end tell end opening folder
that is the
's are not translated into new lines. Kind of a pain. Does anyone know how to remedy this?
Two associated questions:
• What interprets the command "action="">" ? //com.apple.scripteditor? • My system doesn't have a //com.apple.scripteditor file. Where would I get one? Where would I put it? Preferences? Do I need it?
Thanks,
