[MacPerl] "FindFolder.pl" in 5.1.0 beta?



The previous MacPerl had a great little utility, FindFolder, which appears
to have vanished from the Flibrary in the new Beta, although the test for
it still exists in the 't' folder.

Did I miss any announcements on the future of this package or ones like it?
I see what appears to be a replacement for it in 'Mac::Files.pm', but have
been unable to get it to work.

The earlier 'lib::FindFolder.pl' interface:

#
# &MacPerl'FindFolder($foldertype [, $create])
#
# Where $type is one of:
#
# A[pple menu]
# C[ontrol Panel]
# D[esktop]
# E[xtension]
# F[onts]
# P[references]
# M[onitor Printing]
# N[etwork trash]
# T[rash]
# I[tems startup]
# S[ystem]
# Y[TemporarY Items]
#
# If "true", $create specifies that the folder should be created if it
# doesn't exist yet.
