I have tried the basic import script that Klaus sent me, (See below,) on a bunch of different text files. The script does not work if the file I'm trying to "put" is a folder with one of these fancy "f"s at the end. (You make it on the Mac by pressing opt-f.) If I remove the ƒ at the end of the folder name the script works.
Is it supposed work this way, or is this a bug?
Thanks,
Rich

Thanks Klaus,
I had tried this script before and it didn't work. (I tried every import text variation I could find in the documentation.)
So, I tried it again, and it still didn't work.
On a hunch I tried opening a test file that I put in my Applications folder, and it worked!
So, I then tried moving the same file I had just managed to open to the folder where I have my rev projects-- and it does not work.
The path on the successful attempt: /Applications/test.3
The path on the unsuccessful attempt: /Users/laguer/Documents/Revolutioní/test.3
It seems that this script works for files one place on my hard drive, but not another?
I'm using OSX 10.2.8 on a G4 Mac and Rev 2.2
Is there a rule that limits how many folders away a file can be?
