There is a slimmed down version of the Buddy Xtra for the Mac. It gives you
some of the functional of the Windows version (but not all). You can use the
following commands (among others) x-platform without difficulty:
baSysFolder
baGetFolder
baFileExists
baCopyFile
The syntax will be exactly the same for both platforms. Check the Mac buddy
xtra docs for more details.

We have done a several projects like this. The buddy xtra was the perfect
solution for us. If you would like additional information, feel free to
email me off-list.
