Purely applescript - backwards text

[batgirl003]

If I have a file name let say AB1234 and I want my applescript to return 4321BA (backwards text of original) do you know of a quick way to do that? I have looked up different additions that will break down the name, but not a simple backwards command. Please help!! What is the easiest and fastest way to achieve this. Remember the name lengths will differ.

Here's a simple solution...

set theLength to count of characters in theText

set ReverseText to ""

repeat with i from theLength to 1 by -1

set ReverseText to ReverseText & character i of theText

end repeat

Quicker:

(reverse of (characters of "AB1234")) as string
