It includes two functions. o abs2rel: make a relative path name from an absolute path name abs2rel(<original path name>, <base directory>, <result>, <size of result>); INPUT INPUT OUTPUT <original path name> <base directory> <result> /usr/src /etc ../usr/src o rel2abs: make an absolute path name from a relative path name rel2abs(<original path name>, <base directory>, <result>, <size of result>); INPUT INPUT OUTPUT <original path name> <base directory> <result> ../usr/src /etc /usr/src A sample application 'lndir' for abs2rel is available. This command is derived from X11 and slightly modified to generate relative symbolic link. See example/README. >How-To-Repeat: I put pathconvert archive as ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/incoming/pathconvert-a3.tar.gz >Fix: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
