My code basically looks like this, "lib" being the dir
inside the current user's dir that I want to delete:
UInt8*userslibPathPOSIX = "./lib";
I've tried:
UInt8*userslibPathPOSIX = "./lib";
and
UInt8*userslibPathPOSIX = "~/lib";
and
UInt8*userslibPathPOSIX = "Users/~/lib";
and
UInt8*userslibPathPOSIX = "$HOME/lib";
None of them work.

"." is the current working directory, which might be the
home directory. It might be guaranteed by Apple, I don't know,
but I know that tilde will always be the home directory, even if other
POSIX commands have selected a different working directory.

Isn't the current user directory just
specified as "."?
Ian
This may be a newbie question, but how do
I specify the current user directory using a POSIX-style pathname in
Carbon? I need to delete a directory directly inside the current user
directory so I need to make a fixed path as a POSIX pathname string
and then convert it to an FSRef.
Thanks,
