Get HFS Path of POSIX Path?


  • Subject: Get HFS Path of POSIX Path?

Greetings,

I tried to search my own archives and samples before asking; isn't there a
method, other than a text replacement subroutine, to get the HFS path to an
object from its POSIX equivalent?

have: "/Users/Library/Folder/Object
need: ":volumename:Users:Library:Folder:object"
where: Users directory is on a volume other than startup volume

I'm finding some problems with file paths when the UNIX path leads (via
symlink or otherwise) to another volume when using text replacement for
paths (which works most of the time, otherwise).

TIA -- JA
