Hi
Neil is on holiday.
Neil is, but just saw this thread - although I think this makes it clear why we need two week discussion periods - the deadline expires before I get back to the UK! I'm happy to expose the drive functions, its a trivial change, since they get exposed for testing anyway. The first version of the filepath library did expose them, and people complained, so I hid them. Looking at the implementation of many of the higher level filepath functions, to get them just right, you need the drive distinction. This makes me suspect that to implement other functions on top of filepath, you will also need the drive functions. I'm broadly in favour of this - Igloo has a concrete use case that can be done no other way so we definately need to solve it somehow. Whether his particular function wants adding is another question. Thanks Neil
