I agree. Therefore, we would have *one* conditionalized definition of is_dir_sep() upfront, and use that in place of c == '/'. The #ifdef I'm addressing above is one that we had to introduce because in the old implementation of prefix_path() on Windows we had to rewrite the path more often than on *nix due to '\\' => '/' conversion. In your new implementation this rewriting now always takes place, but on *nix it more often turns out to be an identity operation. > Especially I have no idea how would that drive lettter stuff > would/should work.

But when would this be necessary? -- Hannes - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
