Greetings all,
I'm currently in the middle of developing a rather large piece of software written in
PHP. I'll spare you the details, but essentially it is a glorified FTP client. The
goal here, of course, is to develop a client that will work on any platform. In
theory, this SHOULD work, because PHP runs server-side, therefore eliminating any
problems that would normally arise from differences between the various platforms.
However, it occurred to me that there isn't really a way (that I know of) to directly
address a specific filename on a Macintosh as there is in other operating systems.
For example, in Windows I could type C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\BLAH.EXE or in Unix I could
type /var/spool/mail/whatever ... but is there a way to do such a thing on a Mac? Can
you directly address a file several levels deep in the filesystem without using the
MacOS interface itself to do so? The project I'm doing relies on the ability to do
just that, and it would appear that I've hit a bit of a snag.
If anyone can offer any suggestions or advice, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks in
advance.
Sincerely,
Shawn Reed
