What is "switchar"?  I have stumbled across a couple of cryptic
references to it and my curiosity is piqued.  From what I was
able to infer, it seems to be an environment variable in DOS that
can be set to change the character used as a separator in pathnames.
I tried it several ways but couldn't get it to work (DOS 3.2).
I would like to be able to use the '/' character in any event.
