I always do something like this:
{$ifdef UNIX}
const dirsep = '/';
{$else}
const dirsep = '\';
{$endif}
path := ExtractFileDir(paramstr(0) + dirsep + 'somepath' + dirsep +
'directory' + 'etc' + dirsep);
Id imagine that one of fpc's units already has something very similar to
this.

Subject: [fpc-pascal] Paths on different OS's
Could someone tell me the way forward and backward slashes are handled
easily?
For example this is sort of code bloat below
Is there some way around this:
{$ifdef unix}
path:= ExtractFileDir(paramstr(0)+'/somepath/directory/etc/';
{$ifdef win32}
path:= ExtractFileDir(paramstr(0)+'\somepath\directory\etc\';
Thank you.
