The following script use Mac::MoreFiles; $creatorType = 'ToyS'; $app = FSpDTGetAPPL 'D', "$creatorType"; print "$/$app"; Fails to find any applications on my startup partition. It seems to make no difference what I give as the first parameter; it works equally well if I write x or nodisk rather than 'D' or 'E', but it locates applications only on my 'E' partition. Can anyone explain this? use Mac::MoreFiles; print $Application{"ToyS"}; finds Script Editor, but although Interarchy is newly installed on the local 'E' partition, it dredges up an older and more distant Anarchie from a networked machine JD # ===== Want to unsubscribe from this list? # ===== Send mail with body "unsubscribe" to macperl-request@macperl.org
