I remember that you had some feeling that the generic path grammar could be improved to make relative/absolute queries more uniform between Windows and POSIX.
I don't remember that; I guess it's been too long.
My plan was to sit down with you in Sydney and learn more about your ideas, but then I ended up not going. Maybe we could work on that by email.
Maybe next week; I'm all tied up now. Cheers, -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting http://www.boost-consulting.com
