Scripts edited in X ask for finder.app when run under 9

Hi there,

Can anyone cast any light on how to avoid difficulties when one is editing
scripts under X, then distributing them for OS9 users.


The particular problem is that I compile and test scripts under X which use
the finder and a carbon app. When I distribute them, the scripts ask the
user to find "finder.app"

Of course the 9 users haven't a clue what this means, and don't even know
to look for the finder in the system folder to fix this.

Any clues on how to make a 9 distribution that is not broken (without
rebooting in 9 and editing each script)?

Tim
