Yeah, I think Folder Actions are the solution. What I really want to do (and I realize I didn't state it clearly enough in my post) is to be able to see MP3 CD and network folders as a source in iTunes...
Ideally, a folder action would, upon the mounting of a MP3 CD, generate the configuration files needed for iTunes to see it as a source. That is, it has to generate the XML file dynamically...
I'm an Expos Fan... Yeah, that's me you see on TV...
That thing means I could, just maybe, watch a game on my computer? What a blast... We just *don't* have games on TV here. None.
The thing is, tickets in the bleachers here in Montreal are 8$ CDN apiece... I think it can go as high as 32$, but at 8$ you're in Right field (or just in line with first base at level 200, wich really isn't very far)... I just don't think they expect to broadcast any Expos games... Too bad...
"We" aren't going anywhere. "We" will stay where we are, and keep annoying whoever happens to pay attention to us.
And then we'll hold a refenrendum.
Or two.
But not before one of us get to be elected to the federal level, so we can argue with each others on the sematics of the question while brigning the whole administration to a grinding halt (think of a political DDOS).
I mean, could we possibly do that in USA? I don't think so. American won't even let us keep our Baseball team. I mean, they have those fancy preoccupations about crowds and whatever...
And our women are more beautiful than Canadian or American ones anyways.
Shades of OpenDoc?

How does this initiative compare to Apple's ill-fated OpenDoc? Is microsoft trying to go the "Document-Centric" way?

"This would be the most phenomenal turnabout in the history of desktop computing."
No. That would be Microsoft switching to OS X...
Macintouch is, more or less, text only, and this story didn't make the front page.
That's my theory...
OS X's help system is wonderfully slow.
As I type this in Safari, I can't help but wonder: how did they achieved such molassenesse?
Yes, I know it's offtopic...
