Here's a script I've been using in my OSX terminal window a lot to open 
a file with BBEdit. There's probably a better way to do this (please let 
me know!).

Oh yes: you have to change the disk name to what your disk is called. 
There's probably
a unix utility that will tell you this, but I couldn't find it. I also 
couldn't find a pathname conversion command, it's also probably 
available, please let me know if you know of something.
