Hi Klaus,

No, but your files can be found INSIDE of the application bundle :-)

"the path of the folder containing the stack" is this one in a standalone on OS X:
../Name_of_your_standalone.app/Contents/MacOS/

Your text files can be found in this folder!
Right-Click on your standalone and select "Show contents" to check it out


Well, I guess you can now tell that I am a relative newbie at OSX...only a couple years into it. Having lived thru apple's change in system 7 years ago, I am VERY cautious about OS change. So much of my perspective on OS X is still pre-OS X.

Thanks for the education!


You will have to take this into account when initializing your global variable:

...
put the filename of stack "Mainstack a.k.a. the standalone" into tFilename
set itemdel to "/"
if the platform = "MacOS" then
  delete item -4 to -1 of tFilename
else
 delete item -1 of tFilename
end if

global appFolderPath
put tFilename & "/" into appFolderPath

You get the picture :-)



Yes....I do something like...

global appFolderPath

on openStack
  set the itemDelimiter to "/"
put (item 1 to -2 of the effective filename of this stack)&"/" into appFolderPath
  get url ("file:"&appFolderPath&"AllUserData.txt")
  if it is empty then
    answer "Sorry, I can't find a user data file!" with "Oops!"
    restoreUserData
    get url ("file:"&appFolderPath&"AllUserData.txt")
  end if
  ...
  ...
  ...
end openStack

Eventually, I'll add in the other platforms


Thanks again!


Best Regards,

Timothy R. Ponn
