Can't read text from file on OS 9

[Andre Garzia]

Also,

I think preferences folder is different, one is ~/Library/Preferences 
the other is inside system folder (the true os 9) so checking for 
special folder path  should return different values, where the value of 
OS 9 is fixed and can be hardcoded, so you can check.

cheers
