Way to put PPPoE status in menubar?

[Ken Ray]

You can do it this way with Rev 2:
 
on mouseUp
  set the hideConsoleWindows to true
  get shell("open " & quote & "/System/Library/CoreServices/Menu
Extras/PPPoE.menu" & quote)
end mouseUp
 
Works for me in 10.2.4,

Subject: Way to put PPPoE status in menubar?


I'm trying to figure out how to get Revolution to put the PPPoE status
in the menubar in Mac OS X.  (Basically mimicing what happens if the
user were to check the "show PPP status in menubar" checkbox in the
networking pane).

After digging around in the web for a bit, I read that this will do the
trick in the terminal window:

/System/Library/CoreServices/Menu Extras/PPPoE.menu

However, when I go into the "Library" folder, I don't see this
CoreServices directory.  I'm assuming if I can get this working in
terminal, then there's a way to get AppleScript to make a call to the
terminal from Revolution to execute the command.  Anyone have an idea of
what this syntax might look like?
