revCopyFile/revCopyFolder weirdness!

[Christian Langers]

Hi Dave,

I never got this function to work on Mac, that's why I use my own way :


function copyFileToDest pFrom, pTo
   if there is no folder pTo then create folder pTo
   --> Mac <--
   if platform() is "MacOs" then

     put ("ditto -rsrc " & q(pFrom) && q(pTo)) into tcomm
     get shell(tcomm)
   else
     --> Windows <--
     set the hideconsolewindows to true
     revCopyfile pFrom, pTo
   end if
end copyFileToDest


I think that the function "revCopyfile" uses Applescript and there are  
some issues...


Hope this helped,

Christian
