:-D Yes, this is nice!

I test the system as follows:

Code: QB64: [Select]

1. IF INSTR(_OS$, "LINUX") THEN OS = 1 ELSE OS = 0
2. SELECT CASE OS
3.     CASE 1
4.         'Linux Path:
5.         Path = "./"
6.     CASE 0
7.         'Windows Path:
8.         Path = ".\"
9. END SELECT
10.

You can also:

Code: QB64: [Select]

1. $IF WIN THEN
2.     Path = ".\"
3. $ELSE
4.     Path = "./"
5. $END IF

The reality is that it makes no difference for QB64's statements if you use / or \, no matter the operating system. Statements like OPEN, and others that deal with files, just don't care and work the same whether you pass them a path with \ or / as separators.

You must only worry about separators if you use SHELL.
