Ok, I heard of this before, but can't remember:
I know that to refer to a file in the current VOLUME regardless of
what subdirectory you are in, you (in AmigaDOS) use ':fname',
but what would be the character(s) to refer  to the CURRENT directory,
such as in an ASSIGN command, that I wanted to assign the current
dir as a certain name.
Anyone?
