Steve, this isn't necessary. GNO & GS/OS can deal just fine with both colons and slashes as separators. You ought to see the logic in GNO's pathname processing code to deal with it! Under GNO and I presume GS/OS too, you can CD into directories on an HFS, etc. volume with the slash, as long as none of the pathname components have slashes in them. -- Jawaid Bazyar | Ask me about the GNO Multitasking Environment Procyon, Inc. | for the Apple IIgs! bazyar@cs.uiuc.edu | P.O Box 620334 --Apple II Forever!-- | Littleton, CO 80162-0334 (303) 933-4649
