How can I launch a projector from a projector in Macs?

[jammer2]

Can someone tell me how I can launch a projector from another in Macs?

I have two exe's and I can easily call one exe from the other one in Flash.

But, how can I make solution that I can use to burn a CD that will work on both PC' and Macs?

The only way I can see is take a version of the exe's for Macs from within Flash? If this is the only way, how do I know what file names I should be calling?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I posted this little snippet a while ago for another problem, but it might make your life easier too. Just call SmartExec instead of calling FSCommand("exec", "whatever") directly and you can forget about platform differences.

function SmartExec(target)
{
   platform = $version.slice(0,3);

   if (platform == "WIN") {
      fscommnd("exec", target + ".exe");
   } else {
      fscommand("exec", target);
   }

}

Note: You still have to worry about the FSCommand directory if you're using Flash MX or MX2004. That means you can call projector B from projector A, but you can't call A from B again because A isn't in the FSCommand folder.

Thanks for the reply.
I'm using Flash 5 to make my exe's.
Will that function work in Flash 5?
(I can't really test it to try it out because I don't have a Mac.)

The only part I was really concerned about (in Flash 5) was $version.slice(0,3);, but the documentation says that String.slice existed in Flash 5 so it should work.
