on a related note: is it possible to have absolute paths in zoo? if so,
if someone makes a m:\... file and u don't HAVE an "m:\" disk, this could
be VERY annoying...

nothing is more frustrating than getting a tar tape with absolute path names
("hey, guy...maybe i DON'T have 20 MB available in /"). fortunately, there
are remedies on a unix system but this could be a problem with zoo...
