Hi, I'm planning to distribute the sources of some programs written in Gforth (an interactive fiction framework and some demo games written with it). My OS is Debian, but I guess most of the (few) potential users run Windows (and of course never heard of Forth). I want the program to be easy to use in any OS with Gforth installed: simply type "gforth whatever.fs" in the unpacked directory (or just execute "./whatever.fs" on Linux).
Well, I have searched and "grepped" the Gforth's sources and manual, but I've found no reference to configurable separators in path files, except the word 'pathsep?' in <cross.fs>. I've tried backslashes and they fail. Is there any way to make file paths work in both environments? Maybe an inner defered word that can be hooked? Or do I have to do it myself in my programs, detect the hosting OS and then choose the proper paths? Thank you. Marcos -- http://programandala.net
