Thanks to all for the advice about Mac Users/home.
The short version was successful:
/Users/~/Library/Fonts
I now need to delete files from Windows Users/home.
Is there an equivalent short version path for Windows or is
'specialFolderPath' used to get this?
If so, how may I use it?
On VISTA for examplethe path appears to be:
C:\Users\????\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Start Menu\ Programs
\MyFileToBeDeleted
Is the specialFolderPath uses differently in XP and Vista?
Any clues would be a great help,
Thanks,
Adrian

Hello all,
Installing fonts into the Public domain is a breeze:
MacHD/Library/Fonts/MyNewFont.ttf
But I need to install and uninstall fonts in the Users domain. For
example:
MacHD/Users/someunknownname/Library/Fonts/MyNewFont.ttf
How can I retrieve 'someunknownname' from any computer and place
it in a
variable in the pathname?
$USER gives you the name of the current user.
However specialFolderPath() might provide the exact folder path you
need. As well as the docs, check out Ken Ray's list of usable codes
for this: <http://www.sonsothunder.com/devres/revolution/tips/file010.htm

BTW, in OS X & Rev, you don't need to include the MacHD part in your
file path. /Users/username/Library.... is the way such folders are
specified.
Cheers,
Sarah
