Thank you Shane.
In my case, the window displays the file. In my test, I get the path to the
file, puts it into the script and before running it move the selection one file
up or down. The result is that that same file is selected and Info points at
the enclosing folder.
When I close the folder, it opens but no file is selected.
As far as my test goes, reveal only works in that folder if the file has no tag.
In other folders 'with much less files *and* tags), the presence of tags does
not seem to affect the result.
