Here's the "zap" you requested:

>Trying to overcome the problem with LINK68 not accepting pathnames I found
>a scanner control table starting at file-offset 0x8144.
>The command scanner of LINK68 uses a byte entry of this table indexed by an
>input character as a control pattern specifying the character class.
>
>The backslash entry at file-offset 0x81A0 has the value 0x02 which is a
>separator pattern.
>Patching it to value 0x04 puts the backslash into the number class.
>After this fix LINK68 treats the backslash as a normal identifier character
>but GEMDOS still sees a pathname.
