Applescript - Finder List Label Sort

Date: March 31st, 2008  2 comments

Wrote a little Applescript script to speed up the process of changing views in the Mac OS finder and enabling labels. This script is best used in combination with the Apple Script Menu.

You will need to compile and save this script with the Apple Script Editor located in /Applications/Applescript/

tell application "Finder"
	set current view of front window to list view
	set visible of column label column of list view options of front window to true
	set sort column of list view options of front window to label column
	set toolbar visible of front window to true
	set zoomed of front window to true
end tell

The Apple Applescript utility controls the appearance of the Script menu on the main Finder toolbar. Take a look for it in /Applications/Applescript/AppleScript Utility.app

Enjoy.
