find-file-at-point path separator


From: Bill Brodie
Subject: find-file-at-point path separator
Date: Fri, 17 Aug 2001 13:31:50 -0400 (EDT)

In GNU Emacs 20.7.1 (i386-*-nt5.0.2195)
 of Tue Jun 13 2000 on buffy
configured using `configure NT'
under Windows 2000 Professional Service Pack 2



The function find-file-at-point accepts only '/' (not '\') as
a pathname separator, regardless of the value of
directory-sep-char.

With point over a pathname like:

c:\Mydir\Myfile.txt

or

\\Machine\Mydir\Myfile.txt

M-x find-file-at-point fails to default its prompt to
...\Myfile.txt.  With the pathname

c:/Mydir/Myfile.txt

or

//Machine/Mydir/Myfile.txt

it works fine.
