Hi,

Time flies, and I've been away from Kyma for quite a while. Now we're porting old code from Windows to Mac OS X, and finding lots of "C:\yada\yada".

What does Kyma (and all its brethren) want for a file spec? Can it do Linux-style "/Users/yada/yada" or does it want colon-separated?

Better still, is there a cross-platform way we should have done it originally?

And last but not least, how badly will I bork things if I tell perl (or python) to just find and replace regardless of the binary nature of some of these files?

Thanx.

Are these filenames in parameter fields? If so, then Kyma should automatically find it, once you hand locate one of them using the dialog. (or is this hard coded into a Tool?)

Often hand-coded in a tool.

You can use pathnames like:

Macintosh HD:Users:kevinco:Desktop Folder:etc.aif
