It's supposed to do that. (Whether it's a good idea or not is a
completely separate issue, of course) Test 2 tries to open a
Documents folder on your startup disk. I'm going to change that in

If someone's got a harmless and unobtrusive piece of applescript code
that'd be better for the test, I'm all for it.
