Oh, they are! $ ls -@l /Users/robby/Library/Racket/development/doc/search/index.html -rw-r--r-- 1 robby staff 5386 Nov 19 14:00 /Users/robby/Library/Racket/development/doc/search/index.html $ ls -@l /Applications/r/doc/search/index.html -rw-r--r--@ 1 robby admin 4929 Nov 20 03:41 /Applications/r/doc/search/index.html com.apple.quarantine 67 And that was it!! If I run: $ xattr -d com.apple.quarantine /Applications/r/doc/search/index.html then osascript works again! > Another thing: I googled "osascript open url drops query" and got a > bunch of racket results, and dropping "osascript" make the results more > sensible.

I don't know the ramifications of just calling "xattr" from inside DrRacket to fix things up. It may be better to just create the file in the user's directory instead.
