The result is correct, it just gives you what you ask for.

Use this script to get all application support paths:

"POSIX path of (path to application support from system domain) & \",\" & POSIX path of (path to application support from user domain) & \",\" & POSIX path of (path to application support from local domain) & \",\" & POSIX path of (path to application support from network domain) & \",\" & POSIX path of (path to application support from Classic domain)"

Urk. That's a comma-delimited text string containing all the paths ... you definitely don't want that. If any of the path items contained a comma in its name, your app would fail (they don't now, but the whole point of this is to be prepared for future changes).


Why don't you just use FSFindFolder() and be done with it. No use wasting the user's CPU cycles by firing up AppleScript and employing scripting hacks if there's a reliable programming API built-in.
