Yeah, I just noticed the replace() at the top to handle the slashes
and the regular expression below that removes the last directory name
or portion from the shared path (which resolves what I just described
above)... there were a few other things I didn't care for - nothing
really huge. The function requires the source path to be provided
instead of using a default of the current directory, there are two
loops which could be replaced with listlen() or repeatString()
respectively. The listlen() loop in particular is probably fairly
inefficient as it involves an indeterminate number of find() calls.
