Yup, it's Unix, basically.

The problem is that my Fido system runs on a Windows server (virtual machine in my basement). So all the definitions/paths, also what gets automatically generated (e.g. areas.bbs and areas.gld) contains c:\bbs\... style paths. I't only the GoldEd that I would like to have running on my Mac.

I could probably try to do an automatic conversion, using a script, to change the path strings in areas.bbs and areas.gld. Had just hoped that the Path mapping keyword in golded.cfg was an easy, elegant solution to get around having to develop something myself. Oh well..
