I plucked a few out using resedit. Here are the ones I am aware of. I think
they're all right, but I haven't used some of them.
apple menu items folder
application support folder
At Ease applications folder
At Ease documents folder
control panels folder
control strip modules folder
current user folder
desktop folder
desktop pictures folder
editors folder
extensions folder
Folder Action scripts folder
fonts folder
frontmost application
help folder
internet plugins folder
keychain folder
modem scripts folder
preferences folder
printer descriptions folder
printer drivers folder
printmonitor folder
scripting additions folder
scripts folder
shared libraries folder
shutdown items folder
speakable items
startup items folder
startup disk
system preferences
sytem folder
temporary items folder
trash folder
users folder
voices folder
In many cases the word "folder" or other words may be left off; e.g., "path
to apple menu", "path to apple menu items", and "path to apple menu items
folder" all return the same value; as does the pair "internet plugins" and
"plugins". In other cases, the word "folder" appended to constant causes an
error even though the path returned is to a folder; e.g. "path to speakable
items" is correct and returns the path to the speakable items folder, but
"path to speakable items folder" causes an error under OS9.0.4.
