Fold older mac version, use Ken's code: <http://www.sonsothunder.com/devres/revolution/tips/env001.htm> For newest OS, the call on the shell is: system_profiler SPNetworkDataType|grep -e "MAC Address:"|awk '{print $0}' (replace "MAC Address" with the information you are after... see: <http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/System_Profiler> for possible tag names)." Thanks Marielle . . . however that is not quite the point. It would be rather good if there were bits of code as presently advertised in the 4.6.2 upgrade to Supercard present in RR so that (for instance) one could deploy a stack that would play different standards of videoClip depending on information retrieved at startUp about the end-user's computer. I went and took a look in RR's documentation and found 'machine' and read the following: "Returns the type of hardware the application is running on" so knocked up a stack with a Button and a Field, the Button contained the following script: on mouseUp put the machine into fld "fGUFF" end mouseUp ("fGUFF" being the name of my field) and what happened was that "unknown" was put into fld "fGUFF", when my computer type is far from unknown (even if Klaus Major has to remind me that I know already). And, "unknown" is not helpful at all. sincerely, Richmond Mathewson ____________________________________________________________ Save the last dance for me, and don't slip in the dogs mess on the way over to take my hand. ____________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________ New Yahoo!
