When you open terminal you are in your home folder. Use just ~/documents/"time
of Day.applescript" for the copy. Note, if a file or
directory name contains spaces enclose it with quotation marks as shown.
That script is an example used in a key commander that comes with os10, so any
new version overides your modified script of the same name.
You can change the name and make the change in the key commander. Thus it will
not be overridden.
