Hi Heather, Herbie, Alain,

Sometime soon I'm going to have to do a "simple"
file copy operation like Command D does in the
Finder.  Good grief, is that already in the realm of 
"More Files" as soon a resource fork is present!?

I have recently picked up an AppleScripted Finder 
manual.  Is it an ally of FB or a rival?  Or both?
I do use FB as a tool for massive ad hoc file 
manipulation tasks, and it looks like this 
applescript stuff would handle that.

Anyone have experience/recommendations?  This stuff
is not very new.  See

I failed to get the PDF version intact.  Mail me if
you do.  Also mail me if you want the HTML 
download of >> 100 files; it's only 360K compressed
while the PDF is nearer 1Meg.

       Cheers

               Larry S

       
PS.  By all means do post all such demos/libraries
at futurebasic.org after telling us the story 
behind your efforts right here.

PPS.  Herbie has sent me his collection of
FBII AE functions defined via 68K inline Assembly.
Looks neat.
