I really wish Cocoa had a nice API that did what FindFolder does, but
NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains doesn't seem to be it. A quick
comparison of Folders.h and NSPathUtilities.h shows that the latter is
missing tonnes and tonnes of constants for all kinds of standard
folders, and yet it has seemingly nonsensical ones, like:
NSDemoApplicationDirectory, // unsupported applications, demonstration
versions (Demos)
NSAllApplicationsDirectory = 100, // all directories where applications
can occur
What the heck are these? Especially that last one, can't apps be
anywhere still? :)
