Unix doesn't have a concept of whether a file is busy.
Curious. NSFileManager does have an NSFileBusy constant:
NSFileBusy The key in a file attribute dictionary whose value indicates whether the file is busy.
The corresponding value is an NSNumber object containing a Boolean value.
Available in OS X v10.4 and later.
But attempting to get it returns an error:
set err to current application's NSError
set f to current application's NSFileManager's defaultManager()
set somePath to current application's NSString's stringWithString:"/Users/sphil/Desktop/test.txt"
set d to f's attributesOfItemAtPath:somePath |error|:err
d's NSFileSize -- returns successfully
d's NSFileBusy -- error can't get NSFileBusy of »ocid«...
Best
