[QUOTE="marnold37341, post: 20735"] I want to modify OS-X System Preferences settings using a UNIX shell script, which would be invoked at user login. I think I can probably get through writing the shell script if I could find out where the System Preferences are stored, and how to access them. An alternative would be to access System Preferences with an AppleScript, but I haven't figured out how to do that either. I also want to modify settings in OS-9 Control Panels, done from OS-X, if necessary. Any help would be greatly appreciated. [email]arnold_mickey@hcde.org[/email] [/QUOTE]
