What is the best way, on a Mac, to get the path to the various files
included in a Rev distribution. So assuming there is Rev 2.8.1, 2.9, 3.0
etc. installed on a Mac, and without necessarily running the version of Rev,
how would you find say the revdb.so for a particular version of Rev?
Don't know about "best", but how about:
put "3.0.0" into tVersion
put shell("locate revdb.so") into tFiles
filter tFiles with "*/" & tVersion & "*"
as long as the locate file database has been updated recently.
However (if I understand correctly), locate only returns file paths on
*publicly available* volumes. I used it to look for one of my Rev
standalones; it missed everything except the copies on my external HDs.
I used 'find' to get paths on my internal (non-public) HD and again just
in my user account - it worked, but it's very slow. It walks all
directory trees.
