So in Finder I can get to /VCTTools and edit files. BBEdit can open files
under /VCTTools and edit them.
But other programs don't see this directory /VCTTools.

Perhaps you and the Finder have a different idea of where that folder is.

Try this:

- open a new Terminal window.

- type "ls -laeO " (including the space), but do NOT press Return or Enter.

- drag the "VCTTools" folder from the Finder *into* the Terminal window. This will enter the full path to the folder.

- now press Return.

At step 3 you'll see the actual Unix path to the "VCTTools" folder, and that perhaps may explain why Terminal and Finder don't agree.

Then supply the output from the "ls" command, since that may hold some clues as well.

Someday I'll look back on all this and laugh... until they sedate me.
