1. If you just want to update a Finder window, you can do that with the Applescript "update folder pathToFolder". I've had to use this to refresh the contents of open Finder windows. I don't do that any more though.
2. If you want to delete something that's already in Trash (seems weird), you can use the shell command: rm /Users/$USER/.Trash/filename

Chris,
I seem to remember something about the ability to 'touch' a directory using shell scripts which should do what you want.
See, http://www.dartmouth.edu/~rc/classes/ksh/print_pages.shtml
Or Google Mac shell touch.

The problem now is that it just places the folder in the Trash, and it
didn't do that before. Does anyone know if there's a way to remove a
specific folder from the trash using AppleScript? I tried using the empty
command followed by the reference to the folder in the trash, but it didn't
work. If not, I'll just empty the trash, but I thought that's probably not
a very nice thing to do. Shouldn't be a big deal in this case, however._______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
