The help on specialfolderpath goes into great detail, and also points  
to this handy page:

http://developer.apple.com/legacy/mac/library/documentation/Carbon/Reference/Folder_Manager/Reference/reference.html

 From that you can work out that this will give you the Applications  
path:

put specialfolderpath("apps")
