relative path go up two levels before?
markspace, I'm not sure you deserve an answer to your gratuitously
flaming question, but I'll give you one anyway.
I've been programming since 1977, on a half-dozen operating systems
and over a dozen languages of which Java is the latest. Every one
of my clients has been happy with the work I've done for them, and
I keep getting asked for more. Somehow I managed this without ever
having to learn DOS or UNIX line commands, except for a few which
became necessary along the way.
Your post consists of three things: an assertion that I should have
wished to invent a bizarre syntax because other people have done so;
an aspersion upon my programming experience because I didn't know a
syntax that is patently not necessary for a successful career; and a
gratuitous remark that seems to question the file-system knowledge
of the authors of the O'Reilly books on Mac OS X.
If you find sometimes that people don't bother replying to you,
think about it.
