Maybe I am doing something awfully wrong but the problem is that the subject
files (the .m ones at least) because (I guess) they are written from Maple
as a blob when you change the directory using a ascii manipulation the size
is messed up and (I am still guessing here... I am maple ignoramius) when
Maple tries to read  them again it cant.

Hence what I do .. is open them with Maple, change the RootDir and save them
again. And then I have to recompile as well (by the way I can't find this
recompile all at the admin suite of the subject)
