- Thread-topic: whose class is folder...
Just to chime in on Shane's suggestion to use a "repeat loop", I can report
that after some extensive testing by Chris Stone (@ccstone) and myself last
year, we actually found that in some cases repeat loops are faster than whose
clauses, even though you can do the query entirely in whose clauses.
This can vary by app, since, as Shane as said, it is the app that implements
the whose clause, not core AppleScript.
Previously, I had thought of repeat loops as "second class citizens". Little
did I know . . . 😉

In terms of whose clauses, yes. But you can still use a repeat loop to get the
same result.
