The correct one is: |
|||
/ATAFS::drive.$/ |
|||
as from Unix path point of view each '/' should be a real directory separator. /ATAFS::drive.$ is the root of your RISC OS disk while /ATAFS::drive is, nor $ is a subdirectory. Note that the unixify path routines in UnixLib not always followed that rule and the riscosify routines currently accept both. |

In one section you refer to a full path as
/ATAFS::drive.$/
In the next it's
/ATAFS::drive/$/
I presume one of these is incorrect, but can't remember which in order to fix it.
