Hi, I will do that. Using Macs especially at the university for FCP and Adobe appa like Pshop , Dreamweaver and After Effects I have just not gotten into the CLI. but it is time. Maybe I can find help scripts for file management and folder updates for FCP files. Thanks! I cleaned the track for my Lionel today and my 18 year old god daughter and I ran them for awhile. It sure felt good and put a lift to my spirits.
