I forgot about this thread. I knew I'd been thinking about this for a few months, now I know why ;)

I still want *something* rather than nothing. Nice would even be:

makePath :: [FilePath] -> IO FilePath

And likewise, I think you'd want a way to parse a path into its components. About the drives in Windows, java has a function somewhere called "get roots" which on unix will give you "/" and on windows will give you "C:", "D:", etc. This makes sense to me. But about the case sensitivity, I have no idea. I agree that something would be better than nothing. peace, isaac
