Yvan,
it is certainly weird to see At Ease being referred to.
At Ease was a program that came with my MacOS 7.5!!!
In 1997. Wow.
Anyway, the best way to refer to folders is using the 4 -letter code for the folders.
Here are they  and by the way x:xxx:x: refers to a bunch of letters which are different for each user.
Also Macintosh HD  and user1 are going to be name of your HD and your userid.
