tell application "Finder"
set deletedfile to alias "Snow Leopard:Users:test.pdf"
delete deletedfile
end tell
The problem is I repeatedly call this script from my Cocoa application so the sound is played repeatedly too. Is it possible to disable that sound ?
Since the trash is just an invisible folder inside your home folder you can do this...
set myFile to (path to desktop folder as text) & "myFile.txt"
set trashFolder to path to trash folder from user domain
do shell script "mv " & quoted form of POSIX path of myFile & space & quoted form of POSIX path of trashFolder
one simple way (doesn't move to Trash)
do shell script "rm '/Users/test.pdf'"
