Mike,
You can do it completely with Transcript... here's a way to do it on
Windows, Mac OS X and OS 9. The Windows version is a little sneaky as it
takes advantage of aliases, but it works nonethelss. I'll be posting this
tip on my site tomorrow
(http://www.sonsothunder.com/revolution/revolution.htm?file009) as my FTP
server is temporarily down, but in the meantime, here's the code:
on mouseUp
answer folder "Get a folder:"
if it <> "" then
OpenFolder it
end if
end mouseUp
on OpenFolder pPath
switch (the platform)
case "Win32"
create alias "C:/Temp.lnk" to file pPath
set the hideConsoleWindows to true
get shell("C:\Temp.lnk")
delete file "C:/Temp.lnk"
break
case "MacOS"
if the systemVersion >= 10 then
get shell("open " & pPath)
else
put "tell application " & quote & "Finder" & quote & cr & \
"activate" & cr & \
"open folder " & quote & pPath & quote & cr & \
"end tell" into tScript
do tScript as AppleScript
end if
break
end switch
end OpenFolder
Enjoy!
