Hi I'm new to os x programming and having problems with file paths and opening files on the disc drive. It seems quite complex, and completely different from using named paths. instead there are specs for parent id's etc (basically working with variable numbers?) isn't there a similar call to fopen that can open files with spaces and odd characters in the filename? I tried using FSpOpenDF and the FSpec name pstring is ("Macintosh HD:Volumes:XXDISC:.X X f i l e". Which returns -43 All answers welcome

Hmm. I always thought MacOS X did mounting like every other *nix.

after you insert your disc, you can always find it under /Volumes/[DiskName]/ ...
