Well, in public programming, yes: you need some method to switch drive AND

Yes, I grasp that in general, and try to follow it. But
in this case, can one really imagine that ANYBODY would
have \filters on another drive than Editor.exe? (In
fact, I greatly fear that all too many people have
everything--opsys, programs, data, downloads,
archives--on that one, huge, undifferentiated,
unpartitioned C. But let's not go there.)

In any event, one wouldn't want to hard code it,
surely, but extract it by left-parsing the filter path?

Can one have kmd.exe as well
as cmd.exe on a W2K box?


Yes.

I thought so, but glad to be assured.
