I am finding that I need to read a bunch of files then write a file. Problem is, since all files are pulled from same folder, there is the pitfall that one's client code can accidentally read a past version of the file to be written.
Bottom line, it would be nice if we could specify absolute file paths for reading & writing files. The current situation is that we can only specify file paths relative to the web-harvest working directory.
Thanks again for a groundbreaking package!

Ok, I'll make it possible to access files using absolute paths in the next version.
Paths starting with /, \ or X: will be treated as absolute in the file processor.
