Re: [Dev-C++] ANSI C: How to split path and filename

I   hope   that   you'll   find  the  attached  files  of  some  help.

I suggest that upon splitting the name of the file, the separator is not=20
discarded, instead it is kept as the last char of the path: doing so allows=
=20
you to rebuild the name of the file by joining what has  been  returned  by=
=20
"thepath" (as long as it is not NULL) and what has been returned by=20
"thefile" regardless of which is the separator (i.e. a backslash, a colon=20
or a slash).
