Could you first get the user's home folder, and then append what is

It seems that this would work given the current location of the user
application support folder but I still haven't come across any docs (I
haven't looked that hard yet) that discuss whether this folder can be
moved in network environments, if it changes based on the language,
etc. I did find the following though in the Apple docs:
"Your code should never assume the path to a resource within a
file-system domain, as those paths could change in the future. Apple
provides public interfaces for accessing standard file-system paths.
You should always use these interfaces to locate system resources. See
“Searching Within the File-System Domains” for more on searching for
items within the domains."
I just went ahead and wrapped up FSFindFolder (I'm pretty sure this is
what specialFolderPath uses on Mac) in an external for the time being
and filed a feature request for an optional additional parameter to
specialFolderPath that would allow you to specify the domain to search
under (user,network,local,system).
Just as well. I checked on my wife's account which uses Japanese.
Oddly, the "Library" folder at the System level is in Japanese, but at
the user level it is in English.
