I'll take a look at that.
Sorry, I mostly use file:/// (for /etc), or svn+ssh (for /) - so I don't really
test the
authentication problems.

Good catch, I'll try that.

No, it's not *that* easy.
The opt___store_env_noempty just takes everything after a '$' and tries to use
that as
an environment variable.
You'd have to write a new parser, to substitute only /\$\w+/ (in regex-speak);
then
slashes and other things can be included.

Yes; I'd be grateful for that.
I cursed myself because of that a few times; contrary to my initial opinion the
symlink
hasn't proved useful yet.

Once again: thanks a lot.

Would you try to get that into debian and ubuntu? Pretty please ;-)
