The line between “API” and “tool” can be blurry in the Unix world. I believe you’re right that you need to invoke a tool. (The Disk Utility app works similarly — for example, its Disk First Aid feature just runs ‘fsck’.) This is off-topic for cocoa-dev, btw. Better would be darwin-userlevel. —Jens_______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
