> Both slashes work fine for me! There are two areas that I know of that lead to horrible confusion between Windows and Unix systems and users. Both involve strange characters in file names. One is \, the other is space.
Unix/Linux systems use \ for magic in command line parsers and scripts. That is \* means a literal * rather than all the files in the right context. (So does "*".) The other problem is spaces. If you are using a GUI, spaces aren't much of a problem. But if you cut/paste, they don't work unless you are sharp enough to notice the problem and put "s around them or some other workaround. It's much simpler to use _ or - rather than space if you have a multi word filename. -- These are my opinions, not necessarily my employer's.
