It seems that revCopyFolder does not return a value for the new folder it

Is there an easy way to script cloning a folder within the same enclosing
folder but giving it a new name? I want this to work cross platform. Any
help with the following general purpose handler?
command rev_CopyAndRename originalFolder, newFolder
-- work in progress
set the itemdelimiter to /
put newFolder into enclosingFolder
delete item -1 of enclosingFolder
revCopyFolder originalFolder, enclosingFolder
-- put it / the result into copiedFolder
rename folder copiedFolder to newFolder
end rev_CopyAndRename
I think I'd name the new folder something arbitrary, like temp, and
after the copy is done, use the rename folder command to set the
permanent name of the folder.
