Re: the above post about moving the Application Support folder. I prefer the following terminololgy. Which do you mean?
1) Hard drive/Library/Application Support
2) Hard drive/Users/myusername/Library/Application Support
Isn't this a clearer way to describe the pathway?
No, it isn't! In
the language of UNIX, the
leading / is
always shorthand for "hard drive", and the
~ is
always shorthand for "/Users/myusername"; your way is redundant...a cumbersome attempt to reinvent the language.
The paths I've previously posted mean precisely what I typed, as I just described.
Edit: Since we're talking nomenclature, the convention we use at FTM (I don't know if it's universal.) is to identify locations
within an item whose path we've posted is (space)>(space), i.e. /Applications/System Preferences.app > Accounts.
