AutoUpdater

I don’t have AutoUpdater, but I do use Doug’s oPaths object. As I remember, I made a change to the method trimPath, putting in the test for MAC64.

If sys(6)=’M’|sys(6)=’X’
Calculate pfPath as trim(pfPath,kTrue,kTrue,'”‘) ;; trim surrounding quote marks if they exist
If sys(8)=’MAC64’ ;; 64 bit mac os uses POSIX file names
Do FileOps.$converthfspathtoposixpath(pfPath,pfPath)
End If
End If

Calculate pfPath as trim(pfPath,kFalse,kTrue,sys(9))
Quit method kTrue

Hope that helps,

I’m looking for a replacement that will keep users updated without their intervention. Is anyone working on an update for the AutoUpdater or is there a better way?
