I have a question about running HyperCard under A/UX.
Does HyperCard use a ":" or "/" to separate the
folders/directories in filenames.  I'm writing an XFCN that
has to return a pathname and I'm wondering if I should
be checking to see if A/UX is running or if HyperCard does
internal conversions in order to maintain compatibility.
I'm mostly interested in the folder specified as the system folder
by SysEnvirons, but other cases would be good to know for
future reference.
