The short summary is that you can't, because there's no standard way of 
doing it that's truly portable across all platforms. And, 'all 
platforms' includes weird and wacky embedded systems that don't support 
any IO.
Let me put it like this: do you use /, \, :, . or <other> to seperate 
path elements?
