I've just checked, my reference to the HD being partitioned is incorrect, well only slightly if you consider a normal HD is a single partition. On OSX for an absolute path you can use either "/volumes/mac hd/Applications" or "/Applications" - but you can't use "/mac hd/Applications". What is important is that both what the Docs say, and the examples they give are incorrect for OSX, but as Sarah has pointed out they are correct if you are dealing with the old Classic Mac OS. No idea for Win or Linux. Just thought this would have been picked up earlier - I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed;-) _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
