This is more portable. If you want to use a path, use the / and use a full path (pdf spec). One can also say: program(whatever{pars}) but somehow pars are not treated by pdf viewers conforming the specs. If the / gives problems in polish, let me know, since I probably didn't yet identify all places where to take measures. (figures should work ok).
