SaveFrame() in other folder

Programming Questions

Hi!

I have a sketch which it takes photos wit the web cam using SaveFrame().

I know that I can save my photos in a folder inside the sketch folder, but I want to know if is there any way to save my photo on User's Pictures folder.

If there is no way, how can I make to open the folder which is inside the sketch folder from the sketch I have created? I mean, a button that you press and open a window with the Finder (on Mac) or any other browser with the destination of the photo.

Thank you very much!

Perhaps something like a environment variable as a path?

final String PATH = "%UserProfile%\Pictures\";

saveFrame(PATH + "photo-#####.jpg");

Sorry, I don't understand... if I have this code:

void MakePhoto() {
noLoop();
saveFrame("Your Photos/Photo-#####.png");
delay(200);
}

Where I have to put it?

saveFrame(System.getProperty("user.home") + " /Photos/Photo-#####.png");

Ok! I have now the application but it only runs on the Processing environment, but when I export as application for Mac OS X, it open the icon, but I can't see anything, not even the window.
