First, I just want to say that finding Factor has revived my desire to
learn programming again!

I am working through tutorials and online content, however, I am stuck with
one hurdle at the moment. I have set up my .factor-rc file to include the
following lines:

USING: namespaces io.directories io.pathnames editors.scite tools.scaffold;
"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\SciTE\\SciTE.exe" scite-path set-global
"myname" \ developer-name set-global

I F2, restart Factor Listener, but when I try to edit a file such as:

"boids" edit

It asks me to pick the editor, even though it's already picked in the
.factor-rc file, and it returns the following error message in an error
window:

Win32 error 0x2: The system cannot find the file specified.
Launch descriptor:

T{ process
    { command
        {
            "scite.exe"
            "C:\\Users\\myname\\factor/extra/boids/boids.factor"
            "-goto:1"
        }
    }
    { detached t }
    { environment H{ } }
    { environment-mode +append-environment+ }
    { group +same-group+ }
}

It seems like it is using the proper escaped back slash for Windows from my
current-directory global setting, but then the appended portion after is
using forward slashes. I am pretty sure that's why it can't walk the
directory in Windows to find the file. Any ideas? I can not find any
documentation on this portion of building the file path.

Thank you.

Rob
