On Mac OS X, user applications are in

"~"& $USER & "/Applications"

Global applications are in

/Applications

On Windows, you use specialfolderpath(38).

My book has an appendix with all folder numbers and names.

It looks to me that specialFolderPath doesn’t give a way of finding the 
/Applications folder on a Mac (or presumably the equivalent on a PC). If one is 
running a standalone which has been placed in the Applications folder, then it 
is possible to start with specialFolderPath(“engine”) and work back to the 
Applications directory, but I suspect this is fraught with uncertainty. Has 
anyone a solution?
