CHAPTER 3
Finder Commands
Command Definitions 115
EXAMPLE
This script duplicates a file to a disk, replacing any items at the top level of the
disk that have the same name:
tell application "Finder"
duplicate file "My File" of startup disk ¬
to disk "Backup" replacing conflicts
end tell
You can use replacing existing items, with replacing, or
replacing true instead of replacing conflicts without changing
the meaning of the script.
NOTES
The statement duplicate items in referenceToContainer (where
referenceToContainer is a reference to any container) won’t compile. Instead,
use the statement duplicate every item of referenceToContainer.

SYNTAX
