Thank you for the response, I have to tell you that there has been
much personal debate about this also. I have come to the
realization that I will have a folder located within the
Applications suites folder with users information in it. Much like
the way Shared Applications or whatever is located in Microsoft
Office's Application folder. Maybe even a dmg with 128AES encryption.
This way the files aren't deleted if the operating system is halted
or interrupts.
If you need write access to this folder, your application's folder is
not likely the best place to put it. The Applications folder is not
one of those places that you can assume that you can write to, and
it's not reasonable to expect the user to change access for you if
you can't write there.
Better is to have the folder in your application folder (or bundle,
even better) and then copy it to "Application Support" when you first
run after install and use what's in there.
