I won't go into it again here. But note that the MSDOS filename-oriented system calls ALREADY accept both '\' and '/' in pathnames, regardless of switchar settings. So unless a compiler is braindamaged, you should already be able to use syntax like: fopen("c:/foo/bar" ... without difficulty. --Lauren--
