I'm afraid that didn't work for me either - - - it yielded the same result
as revCopyFile and revCopyFolder - - - it did successfully copy the file to the
desktop, but rendered it useless and lost the icon.
Anyone have luck trying this?
1) Make a standalone applescript application
2) Paste a custom icon onto it.
3) Try copying it to your desktop using revCopyFile, revCopyFolder, or the
undocumented revCopyPackage.
4) See if the Applescript application is still usable, and see if it still
contains your icon.
