applescript - Selecting POSIX file based on file name -
i'm having trouble accessing file while trying select on beginning characters basis...
set location "/users/myuser/desktop/" set bom posix file (location & (first file of location name begins "thisfile")) tell application "preview" open bom is path/alias vs text type of thing?
only system events , finder know file in file system is.
finder has property desktop points desktop of current user.
tell application "finder" set bom first file of desktop name begins "thisfile" tell application "preview" open (bom alias) or arbitrary posix path
set location posix file "/users/myuser/desktop" text tell application "finder" set bom first file of folder location name begins "thisfile" tell application "preview" open (bom alias) the alias coercion needed because preview doesn't recognize finder file specifier objects.
