With the current interest in downloadable example files, remember that
RevNet has a large and growing index of such things, including tutorials,
tools, games, and more.
To help make it even easier to add files to RevNet's Stacks index I'm
considering adding support for a common XML format already
My understanding is that WW4 has begun.

I bet you were trying to set the scripts that had more than 10 lines
and exactly that limit prevented you from doing so. If you test, you
will see that setting shorter scripts works. Once they change the
limit to 0, setting scripts in standalones will not be possible at
all. From what I underst

Hi Mark,
...
In the non-password-protected stack, all three text strings are
readable.
In the password-protected stack none of them are.
It seems a change was introduced in the engine at some point that now
provides complete protection for all three types of data storage.
I just did another test

Hugh,
That works for internet addresses and local files that don't have a type
and creator code associated with them. If you *do* have a type/creator
code, you need to strip it before you can launch it.
But you're right... "send to ..." is a lot easier than crafting an
AppleScript for that purpos

I though this was simply
send tAddress to program "Finder" with "GURLGURL"
where tAddress resolves to either a local or internet url. Or did I miss the original point once again? :)

Yep, the same ol' question: how do I launch a local file in the default
browser on Mac OS X?
And for future reference: Where is the definitive answer archived?

I originally thought the same thing until Hugh suggested it again and I
tested it... seems to work for me (OS X 10.2.6).
Go figure...

OK, Richard, I got it... you need to shell() to the "cp" to copy the
file to a temporary filename; doing so will strip the type/creator and
then you can launch it with "open" via appleScript (after converting the
POSIX path to a normal mac path, of course):
on launchit pPath
put pPath into tDest
Uh, Brian... he mentioned a "local file" not a web site. Will this still
work?
