I am trying to add a folder action to automatically do the following 
when I add a file to a folder:

tr -d '\\34' < added_item | cut -d, -f2,1,12 | tr ',' ' ' | grep -v 
Timestamp

and append the result to a fixed filename in the directory.

I have found "do shell script" but I can't seem to get the filename of 
the added_item. I started from the add_items.scpt file which uses 
added_items but I cannot get the "POSIX path of" the first added_item in 
the list.

Anyone out there who can help me please?

Thanks!

Jules
