I noticed that we don't expand tildes in Win32 because of the use of
tilde in short versions of long file names:
char *
expand_tilde(char **filename)
{
if (!filename || !(*filename))
return NULL;
/* MSDOS uses tilde for short versions of long file names, so skip
it. */
#ifndef WIN32
/* try tilde expansion */
if (**filename == '~')
{
However, I thought the tilde was usually used toward the end of the file
name, not at the beginning. Is this true? Should this code be modified?
If you talking about WIn32 ~ they are typically in the middle. Like:
program files === progra~1
