I suppose you mean it *doesn't* work here. This is expected as I stated, Celestia has access only to /Users/jos/Downloads/nroutes/nroutes.celx (the file it opened), not /Users/jos/Downloads/nroutes/nroutes.csv

Yes you are right. I've corrected my previous post

@JOS

Have you had a chance to try any of Apple's suggested ways to find where files have been written?

Other than that, I don't think I can help any more :(

I'm planning to update the published version of nroutes to include a warning about where it must be put. Unfortunately, it looks like the only other changes can be to provide the improved I/O error popups.

Yes. I tried different way to find nroutes.cmod files or nroutes* files via spotlight or the finder : no result. files are not written.
The right way to make it work is to use the /Users/User name/Library/Containers/space.celestia.Celestia/Data/Documents/nroutes
as a folder to execute the script.
Celestia 1.6x and 1.7x use the same path by the way. both versions works
Thank for the help to both of you @Selden @Markerz

@JOS

You're very welcome.

FWIW, I hope to update the published version of nroutes later today.

Added after 3 hours 49 minutes:
I've published the updated version of nroutes.celx.

See my last (3rd) post in the thread viewtopic.php?f=23&t=17765

@JOS

I'd be very interested in seeing whatever you produce with it.
