Backing up files using the label setting.

Question

I want to know if it is possible to back up files, using the labels setting.

Answer 1

Perhaps you could adapt this script to do it...
set itemstomovelist to choose folder with multiple selections allowed
set listofnumbers to {}
set err_log to {}
if itemstomovelist is not equal to {} then
    set lst to {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}
    repeat with i in itemstomovelist
        tell application "Finder"
            get properties of i
            set WIPCheck to (label index of the result)
            if WIPCheck is not in lst then
                set WIPCheck to false
            end if
            if WIPCheck is not false then
                set end of listofnumbers to WIPCheck
                if WIPCheck = 0 then
                    -- do stuff
                end if
            else
                set end of err_log to ("Error - " & ((i as string) & "- Could not get Label Index/"))
            end if
        end tell
    end repeat
end if
return listofnumbers
