This is kind of a dumb question, but I don't have OS X so I have to ask.
You can still use ":" at the end of folders can't you, in Finder
commands, as in "folder:file"
Or does OS X have to use "folder/file"
AppleScript still uses ":" as the file path delimiter. We did that
deliberately, because so many people rely on that to construct and
deconstruct paths by hand. At some point in the future, we'll have a
way to use POSIX-style slash-delimited paths as well.
