Replace Colon with Forward Slash

Hello again list.


Applescript returns a path to a file to me in the following format:

HardDrive:Library:Directory1:Directory2: etc.

I need to convert the returned string into a more terminal friendly string such as:

/Library/Directory1/Directory2/

Is there an easy way to eliminate the hard drive name from the beginning of the string and replace the colons with forward slashes?

Thanks in advance.

Rick
