Hi all,
I have a bad feeling that this has been discussed before, but I'm
currently blanking out and can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. I
searched and found few on the Apple/AppleScript web-site, they didn't
provide the solution I'm looking for. If anyone can help me, I'd
really appreciate it.
If I have the following POSIX path,
set foo to "~/Documents/QuickLooks/"
and want to convert it to the AppleScript file object, I do this...
set goo to POSIX file foo
but this returns ":~:Documents:QuickLooks:". How do I make it so that
it returns "Macintosh HD:Users:dliu:Documents:QuickLooks:"
TIA,
-donald
