Hi Hermann,

I agree - the ss64.com site is quite amazing! Unfortunately my effort at making a joke was not.

At first I suspected your email account had been hacked and the "Here's my secret" message was pointing to a web site that sells something no one needs - the wording was similar to spam emails I've seen from time to time. Then after looking at the ss64.com site I realized I had spoken too soon. (now wiping egg off face)

Thanks for the kind words about Shell Command Help!

Phil

Hi all,
these flowers are not for me. Here's my secret:
Simon Sheppard’s website ss64.com
Extremly fast and *very* competent. Hermann
Phil,

for example the entry for chflags contains the line
"The immutable flag is equivalent to locking the file in the Finder's Show Info 
box."

This info is missing on Apple's own (BSD-) man page for chflag. That's an 
example for
why I used such 'flowery' superlatives. And I don't even know Simon.

By the way: I'm from Germany and I like fish, also fish from Denmark.
And I like flowers --- and Phil's 'Shell Command Help' in LC's Sample Stacks ;-)

I found also the hint that
setfile (Xcode CommandLine Tools) enables to lock/unlock.

It's now somehow clear why Stephen and I got "execution errors" from applescript
via LC:
Locking/unlocking of a file requires to be owner or superuser of that file. 
This is
perhaps better reflected by the Applescript Script Editor but may not be given
if we "do ... as applescript".
