Hello again, Macruby community!
I'm trying to rewrite a program that drives Excel with appscript, and running
into the problem of translating back and forth between HFS and POSIX pathnames.
The old Appscript module included a MacTypes module, and these two
translations were provided.
1. to go from POSIX to HFS:
hfs_pathname = MacTypes::FileURL.path(posix_pathname).hfs_path
2. to make the round trip back to POSIX:
posix_pathname =
DefaultCodecs.unpack(DefaultCodecs.pack(hfs_pathname).coerce(KAE::TypeFileURL)).path
Do I need to go to the scripting bridge for this? This is Core Foundation
stuff, and I'm totally at sea.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Bob Schaaf
