Kay and Ian,

Perhaps you both, being such fans of the simplicity and elegance of
bundles, wouldn't mind starting a revLibrary which provides file
operations on files/folders/bundles and share it with us less

Here are some I'd like to see implemented, and might provide you a start...

Sounds like a good idea to me, and the NewDelete functions would be useful to anyone on *any* platform as a workaround versus the dreaded 'kill the HD' bug.

get theNewFiles()
get theNewFolders()

I think the starting point for these two would be something like:

get theNewContent()

which would return:
filenameA       folder
filenameB       bundle
filenameC       file
filenameD       file
filenameE       bundle
filenameF       folder

Which itself could start from some kind of whatIsThis() function?

theNewFiles() and theNewFolders() would then be a couple of lines.

NewCopyFile pStartPath,pDestinationPath

which copies files and folders which are supposed to be
files...keeping their creator and type codes intact.

(is this the same as a revCopyFile?)

Yes, that's what revCopyFile will do currently.

Maybe others can think of more?
