thanks everyone!  i did run into the folder replacement issue... and i think i was able to selectively add things in... think it all is working now :) 

I have way too much stuff!  i know i have plenty of unreferenced obj files laying around...

can you get it to compress all the poser files in the background?  or do i need to open a figure and then resave it to get it to compress

this is much different than on my pc, but I am loving my mac :)
