Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure you *do* need that intermediate AppleScript action, at least as of 10.4.2.

Success - I added Chris's AppleScript action to Steve's workflow and finally managed to get a Finder-selected text file into 'cat'. Thanks!


Unfortunately this script doesn't work with more than one file selected - how could I adapt the AppleScript to cope with a selection of files?

Thanks for the help!

Pete
