I'm wondering why keeping this heading slash, it seems unnecessary, and yet another thing that translators have to take care of. Perhaps it would be not difficult to make sure to keep only the trailing slash, without keeping the heading slash? (and just a slash when no path is to be looked up). > > Does that work with current translators? > > It appears to work fine so far, but it might require more stress testing > to be sure (like compiling a big project) I don't think compiling stuff would be problematic, since it'd just open files. It's more corner cases which may pose problems (opening stuff in httpfs and whatnot). Samuel
