Short: Patch dos to use ixemul style path parsing Author: erix@telebyte.nl Uploader: erix telebyte nl Type: dev/gcc Version: 1.36 Requires: kick v36 Architecture: m68k-amigaos ixpath v1.36 ------------ This program patches some dos.library functions so you can use ixemul style paths when calling these functions. You would I think only need such a patch when you're using gcc utilities like `rm', `cat', etc... Better yet, if you don't see the advantages of this patch, you probably won't have any use for it. usage: ixpath [anything] Functions will only be patched when no arguments are given. If you do pass any argument, some info will be printed and no patch will be installed. - path conversion: . current dir .. parent dir /foo foo: - does not require ixemul.library (is that a good thing?) - includes source - displays a list of patched functions on startup - does not check whether patch already installed or not disclaimer ---------- There is no warranty for this program to the extend permitted by applicable law.
