- I would like to be able to copy a file to a "drop" folder, a folder into
- which I can drop things (with the Finder), but which I am not allowed to
- open.
- Using COPY-FILE directly doesn't work, because COPY-FILE tries to look
- into the folder, and thus violates the protection of the folder.
- Is it possible at all to do such a copy-operation from MCL? If not, is
- it possible to do it by sending appleevents to the Finder?
