Instead of assuming root is "/" I'll need to extract what root is from an absolute path. Aside from what root looks like, do most other path constructs behave similarly in unix and windows? (like ".." and "." as examples) Since I don't really have a windows machine to test things it might be slightly difficult to get everything correct quickly but hopefully we can get this working :) -- Brandon Williams
