Re: Function "replace" for strings?

[Tatsuro M. <tma...@ya...>]

Hello

The windows console prompt and almost console commands do not accept '/' as a path separator. 

See
d:\usr\Tatsu>cd d:/usr
The system cannot find the path specified.

d:\usr\Tatsu>cd d:\usr

D:\usr>

Therefore replacement of '/' by '\' as path separator sometimes are really required on windows.

BTW, the gnuplot prompt accepts '/' as path sepearator. 
See;
gnuplot> cd 'd:/usr'
gnuplot> pwd
d:\usr

In the almost programing languages working on windows accept '/' as a path separator.

Regards

Tatsuro
