Windoze Guru, please help
« on: June 04, 2003, 11:16:28 AM »
IS there any way of getting Windoze to accept path names the right way around?

So that:
c:\temp\mystuff\fungame.exe

can be typed:
c:temp/mystuff/fungame.exe

It's just getting on my nerves, that's all :-)

Install amithlon? ;-)


Hehehe, Legal and moral issues aside... I don't think my boss would be too keen about Amithlon... He freaked out when he saw AROS on half the machines in the office  :-)

Well, I've never had windows accept  the / in a path name, I think cgwin is the best idea... and since I've just hacked the administrator password on this machine here at work I can now install stuff :-)

Which password cracker did you use?

btw. You don't need admin rights to install Cygwin. :-D


This one: http://home.eunet.no/~pnordahl/

And I need admin rights to take a leak here :-(
