Windows uses the backslash as a delimiter, but Rev uses a slash internally. Some routines will require you to specify with the backslash (such as shell()), but most places where you specify a file for Rev you will need to use a slash.

Is the path delimiter in Windows a slash or a backslash?
In my script I'm using slashes (/) but I'm getting a weird error msg upon launching the Windows standalone.
Here's the stuff in the on openstack script (which is used to read/set prefs from a text file):
put the platform into theOS put the systemVersion into theVersion
set the itemDel to "." put item 1 of theVersion into MacOS_X_or_not set the itemDel to ","
put the filename of this stack into MyPathWay set itemDel to "/"
if theOS is "MacOS" and MacOS_X_or_not >9 then -- OS X handles filepathways differently -- delete last three directories of myPathWay put the number of items of myPathWay into LastFolder2Delete put LastFolder2Delete - 3 into FirstFolder2Delete if item FirstFolder2Delete of myPathWay contains ".app" then delete item FirstFolder2Delete to LastFolder2Delete of MyPathWay else -- must be a .rev file - no problem delete last item of MyPathWay end if set itemDel to "," -- reSet to default deLimiter else -- windows or X_x if theOS is "Win32" then put the number of items of myPathWay into LastFolder2Delete delete last item of MyPathWay else -- end if set itemDel to "," -- reSet to default deLimiter else --linux --later end if
put MyPathWay & "/TJsettings.txt" into PathWaytoTJsettings answer "myPathWay = " & return &\ myPathWay & return &\ "PathwaytoTJsettings = " & return &\ PathWaytoTJsettings
and the error msg reads:
The application or DLL C:\(and the pathway to the text file I'm reading preferences from with each item separated by backslash characters) is not a valid Windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette.
I'm putting a jpg up that displays screencaps of these to clarify.
It's at: http://academics.georgiasouthern.edu/cet/SB/errorcap.jpg
Thx for any suggestions. Steve
