Create link for Desktop

[bluefloyd8]

I wrote the following script which allows me to have two sets of Desktop files which I can toggle between. The script runs on a trigger in Quicksilver
Please dont try any of this code unless you understand it fully!

# This script is set to run on a trigger in Quicksilver
try
	do shell script "rm -r ~/DesktopSpaces/Desktop1/*"
end try
try
	do shell script "mv ~/DesktopSpaces/Desktop2/* ~/DesktopSpaces/Desktop1/."
end try
try
	do shell script "mv ~/Desktop/* ~/DesktopSpaces/Desktop2/."
end try
try
	do shell script "mv ~/DesktopSpaces/Desktop1/* ~/Desktop/."
end try

This works fine, but I want to do it more elegantly. I was thinking of using symbolic links. To do it, I tried the following:

rm -r Desktop
ln -s DesktopSpaces/Desktop2 Desktop

This actually worked. However, when I try to change that desktop (by removing the file and doing a link on Desktop1 directory) nothing changes.

Any ideas why? This would be really cool to have it work.
