The problem is I am using Codewright and UltraEdit (both are ``power'' programming editors), they both provide one-click access, predefined menu command or button command to common tasks like compiling and debugging, but they all generate path information using \, thus gdb won't work correctly. Are there any options in Djgpp which can force those programs to recognize \ notation?
