------- Comment #2 from jarrett.billings...@gmail.com 2009-01-02 19:48 ------- It's tricky. Windows accepts such paths, and they are absolute to the current drive, but relative to the entire filesystem. Since the same path (like "\foo\bar\baz.txt") can refer to different files based on what the current drive is set to, I guess it's still relative, in which case Phobos is right. --
