Hi there,
My goal is to ask Safari to open a local html file, so I need to go from
"Vortex:Users:tim:Desktop:reading data/data.html"
to
"file:///Users/tim/Desktop/reading/reading data/data.html"
To problems are removing the startup disk from the mac hardware path to the
unix user-based path, and encoding the bad characters in the name.
Any clues why the result of the next line has ":.:" prepended?
Posix file (path to user folder) -->> file ":.:Vortex/Users/tim/"
Is there any reference material on the web for this and related tasks?
