works nicely, except when the name of the file contains an umlaut. Then, there is an error code 256: No such file or directory. If I do the same shell command in the terminal everything works fine. Is there something that I have overlooked?

Yes: accented Roman characters can be represented two different ways in Unicode; they can be either composed (a single character) or decomposed (a base character plus another one for the accent mark). The Unix shell is not smart enough to treat these two versions of a string as the same thing, even though they look the same to the eye. (Neither is REALbasic, for that matter.)

Why won't FolderItem.Delete do it?
