[TxMt] Re: Expandable directory aliases in the project drawer

This script (AppleScript in BASH) give you the path pointed to by an alias:
https://github.com/olliesaunders/osEnv/blob/master/bin/apath

And makes use of abs_path (BASH), which you can see here:
https://github.com/olliesaunders/osEnv/blob/master/bin/abs_path
