Using AppleScript, how can you get the version number of the Mac OS without the localized characters?
ie.
<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1"face="Geneva, Verdana, Arial">code:</font><HR><pre><font size=1 face=courier>tell application <font color = red>"finder"</font>
set theVersion to (version as string)
if theVersion is less than <font color = red>"<font color = blue>9</font>"</font> then
beep
end if
end tell
</font>[/code]
An international version returns the version as "S1-9.1" for example (Sweedish).
So what can be done?
