[MacPerl] FindFolder?

[Randy Bradley <bradley@aux1.marc.usda.gov>]

Hi All,

	I would like to store a few template files in the
system/preferences folder.  I thought the FindFolder() function would be
the best way to get the path to it, but I don't seem to have the external
library in my package?  Here is the error message I get when I try to run
the FindFolder.t program.

# MacPerl::LoadExternals("FindFolder.pl"): File not found..
File 'usr:MacPerl Ä:lib:FindFolder.pl'; Line 3

It seems strange to me that the external has the same name as the library?
Is this usual?

On a related note, Can I ask StandardFile to show the files in a specific
directory?  It seems to go to the last user selected directory.


Thanks,


Randy
