I've notice (dos 5, haven't tested w/others) that truename will also use
a forward slash in the returned path/filename if the argument to truename is
recognized as a device (i.e., lpt1, con, nul, clock$, ...)

C:\>truename lpt1
C:/LPT1


Now, if E: and P: are both mapped to the same PCNFS server, (different 
mount points on the server), with P mounted first, I get the following
interesting results:

E:\>truename lpt1

P:/LPT1

E:\>truename xyz

\\E\XYZ

E:\>p:

P:\>truename lpt1

P:/LPT1

P:\>truename xyz

\\P\XYZ


Note that the handling is different for devices, both in returning a
drive-letter-and-colon instead of \\driveletter, and in not necessarily
returning the same drive "letter" as the current drive.  Perhaps this has
to do with the SUBST behavior the originator of the thread on truename
alluded to?
