[Pythonmac-SIG] Finder Crash, after moving files....

[Benjamin Schollnick]

Folks,

	I know I asked about this before... But...

	The following script will crash the finder, in a repeatable manner....

	After, roughly, only .... <cough> <cough> four thousand and twenty 
five <cough> <cough> findertools.move's, the finder will crash....

	This finder crash also seems to take down Safari if it is running....  
(No other applications, just the Finder and Safari...

	Actually, technically the finder is running...  But you have the 
spinning pizza wheel, and your only recourse is to relaunch the 
finder....

	Also...  I can't find the directory that findertools or EasyDialogs is 
now stored in....  I am running on 10.3.4, and this has happened for a 
long time...  I never thought to see if it is reproducable or 
consistent....

			- Benjamin

Btw-> If anyone asks, this is usually run on my download directory...  
Well, actually a different script is run on my download directory to 
"clean it up", and make subdirectories, and move files.

	I just changed the way that script works, so I need to "remove" the 
old subdirectories and have it process them again...  So I whipped this 
up...
