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?
Yes, very easy.
POSIX path of "HardDrive:Library:Directory1:Directory2:"
--> "/Library/Directory1/Directory2/"
This assumes that "HardDrive" is the actual name of the drive.
