Follow-up Comment #21, bug #36677 (project octave): The handling of "file:" as a prefix should probably be limited to contexts where that is expected. The low-level file functions that test for absolute file names are probably not the right place. Those should be making tests that correspond to the rules for file names on the OS (and filesystem). So it's OK to test for things like "C:" as a device name prefix, but only on Windows systems. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?36677> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
