That's not exactly true. To be precise, all of the Windows APIs accept either \ or / as a path separator. However, the command-line shell does not, because they idiotically chose to use / as the command switch introducer in MS-DOS, and that's carried forward to today. That's a big problem. -- Tim Roberts, t...@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
