Or perhaps mauve...
(What color is mauve, anyway??? Oh, never mind... I'm sure I DON'T want
to know! :) )
(Which brings to mind a moment from my childhood - my mother, my little
brother (7 or 8 years old), and myself (about 11 or 12, as I recall) in
the car, headed for town. Little brother in the back seat is the
designated trivia-game question reader for the ride. Several questions
go by, answered in rapid-fire mode, then a pause, and he asks "what
color is puke". Mom would have swatted him one if she hadn't been
driving, and said so, and he responds "but that's what the question is!"
End of game...
Looking at the doohickey with the questions later, we were all amused to
find that the actual question was what color is "puce"...
Oh, to bring things back on-topic, Bo's suggestion (the FSFindFolder()
function) is working perfectly - toss the resulting FSRef for the user's
homedir to FSRefMakePath() to get ThePath in a form I can tinker with,
strcat(&ThePath, "/Client.log") to tack the filename onto it, run
ThePath back into FSPathMakeRef(), and I've got exactly what I need,
working exactly as wanted. Minimal heartburn, maximal function - Gotta
love it :)
Thanks again, Bo!
