(dropping hg-user mailing list) Phew. I was quite curious about this because the PATH mechanism hasn't changed since 1.0. The trailing slash is a side-effect of the way Windows Installer treats directory variables; it always appends the trailing slash for easy concatenation. I'm not sure if there's an easy way to strip it. -- Steve Borho ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
