You can determine the UID of the current user under OS X with the
following function call:
shell("id -u")
For example:
answer "The current user has a UID of: " & shell("id -u")

If I set the default folder to "/Users/myUserName/.Trash/" and get the

startup disk. Any items moved to the trash from other mounted volumns
don't show up.
Anybody know why? Or a way around this problem?
Each volume has its own trash. On my Backup volume, for example, it is
located here:
/Volumes/Backup/.Trashes
Each user has a sub-folder, so my user's trash is here:
/Volumes/Backup/.Trashes/501
So, if you want to access the trash, you need to know the UID.
