I use the $USER variable in my scripts to get to the user’s home directory. For instance, say I’m installing a preferences file with a serial number for a particular app, but it needs to be in their ~/Library/ Preferences folder. Then have a postscript that moves the file to /Users/$USER/Library/ Preferences/ I use $HOME to get the user's home directory so the postscript becomes $HOME/Library/Preferences/ This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
