- Short: Patch dos to use ixemul style path parsing
- Author: erix@telebyte.nl
- Uploader: erix@telebyte.nl
- Version: 1.36
- Type: dev/gcc
- Requires: kick v36
-
- 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
