Subject: \ReadFile in MkII vs MkIV
Date: Sat, 16 Oct 2010 17:09:06 -0400 (EDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LNX.2.01.1010161701230.7119@ybpnyubfg.ybpnyqbznva> (raw)
Hi,
In MkII, I can say
\ReadFile{/tmp/filename}
to read a file in /tmp directory. However, in MkIV, that fails because
ReadFile is defined as
\unexpanded\def\ReadFile #1{\doreadfile{any} {.}{#1}\donothing\donothing}
so it explicitly searches in the . (current) directory.
Bug or feature?
Aditya
