The question is: For what reason is this function needed? If you use
"subst" on Windows you can make every path to a root path if you want.

Maybe because he wants to determine whether a path is absolute or not? So that he can e.g. convert an absolute path to a relative one so he can save this in a configuration in a more "portable" way. "subst" (or adding the path to DosDevices in the registry which is the way I prefer for persistent substing ;) ) might be a completely wrong solution or a solution where you shoot cannonballs on little birds...

Sven
