Hi guys,
I am messing with Visual Basic Express edition. I was hoping to use
UniObjects against my Universe Database.
Or just use $OPTIONS EXTRA.DELIM.
This ensures that an empty element is still added with the correct delimiter.

created are physically resident in that directory (unless you do special things
to move them).

You can execute an ls -i for each path (ls -i ../../blahblah). This returns
the inode for the file. If the inode is the same, the files are the same
(one inode for each file).
