I agree with Scott that this should be in the filesystem. If not, you have to add it to every last application that uses filenames. (Here, `/home/foo' works everywhere for all foo, although I'm not entirely happy about the symlink farm that makes it happen...) > Also where can I get the latest version of rc and it still being > actively developed. The latest full release is still 1.4, but you might like to try the latest beta release 1.5b2. You can get it from these places. ftp://ftp.sys.utoronto.ca/pub/rc/rc-1.5b2.tar.gz ftp://ftp.pipex.net/people/tim/rc-1.5b2.tar.gz Let me know if you don't have the one-line patch I posted to the list the other day.
