Upon learning about the swithchar=-, I immediately made the change and
have been enjoying the change until I tried to RESTORE my harddisk.  I
seems that when you change the switchar that the path names embedded
into each file at BACKUP time are separated by '/'.  The problem I
have encountered with this is that you can no longer RESTORE files
from the floppy disk.  I have no problem using BACKUP/RESTORE when I
do not use switchar, but right now I am unable to restore my hard disk
since I BACKUP'ed it with switchar=-.  Anyone have experience with
this?  Would appreciate any info on this.

Thanks in advance.
