Thanks, Ken! I had tried <packages of POSIX folder...>, but it didn't work, of course. Can you recommend a good Applescript book? Not an intro to scripting, but something fairly in-depth? If not, could you write one? :)

Best,

Mark

This is great! I couldn't find this anywhere. So here's a function
that uses it - maybe someone has better code for converting the path
to applescript.

Well you can have AppleScript do it for you using "as POSIX file":

function thePackages pFolder
  put "tell application" && quote & "Finder" & quote & cr & \
      "packages of folder (" && quote & pFolder & quote & \
      "as POSIX file)" & cr & "end tell" into tScr

  do tScr as applescript
  put the result into tList
  replace comma with cr in tList

  repeat for each line L in tList
    get wordoffset("file", L)
    put word it + 1 of L & cr after tPackages
  end repeat
  replace quote with empty in tPackages
  return char 1 to -2 of tPackages
end thePackages

Either way works...
