Totally override a folder's name sort order in the Finder
Authored by: pairaka on Jun 26, '03 06:01:12AM

Could you explain how to do this, please? Setting up my system so that I can have the folder for the current date open automatically at a specified time?

Thanks,

Pairaka

I would do something with:
set curmonth to month of (current date) as string

to start looking for the correct folder. There's probably something very, very similar for the day of the month.

...at a specified time?

Have a look at cron and osascript to run an Applescript at specifid times and intervals.
