Belisarius is on a distinguished road
Like I said, in that form it can't be truely independent. In Unix, there is no "C:".

The main difference between absolute and canonical is that the latter resolves the "." and ".." characters as well as things like sim-links, whereas the former doesn't.

They won't switch around the slashes for you.

What exactly are you trying to accomplish? I might be able to help you make the whole thing system independant.
