Re: Home directory

To update the following script for MAC OS X, I need to know how is called
the home directory on OS X.

If you are using Mac OS X 10.3, you may refer to Documents folder directly by:

path to documents folder
-- on my machine, the result is
-- alias "bee:Users:bill:Documents:"


It is important to applicate the script for each different users to verify
if the folder "Donnies utilisateur AppleWorks" of folder "Documents" of
3Home Directory2 exist. But I do not know how we call the home directory on
mac OS X. It must be easy but I do not found it in the help.

You may consider:

set bonbon to ((path to documents folder) as Unicode text) & "Donnies utilisateur AppleWorks"

try
alias bonbon
-- folder named "Donnies utilisateur AppleWorks" exists
say "il y a bonbon"
on error
-- no such folder
say "il n'y a pas bonbon"
end try
