Actually, this may not be a problem. I have a utility bbcim floating
around the net which makes diskimages and extracts files from them (for
BBC computer emulators) which has been compiled under win32 by someone I
know (with a few changes) but with '/' as a dir separator. This works!
(he uses NT/win 95 which I don't have. I only consider installing that
junk for Duke4ever btw).

IIRC this also works on the DOS version which I compiled with turbo C
for those unfornates not having a better OS...
