umm calm down, maybe you could post more of your scripts and what they

distribution and every one (and I mean EVERY GODDAMN ONE) of my
scripts that call any of your routines that need to know what a host
or a directory are f#$king broke.  What in god's name is
"/usr/local/bin" on a windows machine?  Why don't you UNIX weeneies
get a grip.  F#$king fix it.  It used to be great.  Now I can't even
change a directory.

a great product unusable.
