Thank you I.S. and all who replied! :-)
It's my understanding that [NSFileManager fileAttributesAtPath:traverseLink:]
will do fine for a single file but for directories it won't include the sizes
of the subdirectories as Finder does. That's what I got in my testing as well
but maybe I'm missing something?
As for not using Carbon I suppose there's no reason I can't use it. I was just
thinking with Finder going away from Carbon and since I'm just learning Cocoa I
was trying to avoid it if I could. But if it's the best way I can use it...
Thank you very much,
Rick

Have you tried searching the archives? How about Google?
See -[NSFileManager fileAttributesAtPath:traverseLink:] ... it
includes a fileSize attribute.
