Subject: | [Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #62865] 'path' should return drive letter, not UNC path when 'addpath' was called with drive letter |

Follow-up Comment #17, bug #62865 (project octave): I don't know if this is the only use case. But one that comes to mind is the following: The load path is where the information is stored which character encoding is used to parse a file. If a user executes a script or function using a path that differs from the one originally fed to the load path (e.g., in character case or different symlink path), they probably still expect that the file is executed taking that information into account. That is what I meant by the second requirement. What you are describing would be the covered by the first requirement. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?62865> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
