Subject: Antwort: Re: SEPARATOR doesn't work





Thanks....just learned another thing.
It works fine, however there seems to be a bug or anything like this. At
least in my (v1.6) version of Ruby File::SEPARATOR returns / on both, BSD
and Win32. Is this normal?
I intended to split a user given paht in its components. Thus needing it
(or not?).
