3.4 Pathname Description Method
1) Enclose every pathname in a pair of parentheses. A pathname must have a length of 255
characters or less including the two parentheses. A 2-byte code character is counted as one
character.
Example: FLCE /S "
casio data*.dat" "d:data"
2) Pathnames must be described in accordance with the path naming rule supported by the OS of
the machine on which the specified path is to be placed.
3) Observe the following rule on drive letters when describing pathnames:
Describe a pathname on the H/PC so it begins with the root directory, without including
a drive letter. (This rule should also be applied when the pathname of a file or directory on
the H/PC is specified from the up/down utility for a host PC.)
If a pathname with a drive letter is specified from the communication partner, the drive
letter will be ignored by the FLCE on the host PC. (In other words, this pathname
specification is treated as being equal to a specification that begins with the root directory
without a drive letter.)
If the communication partner (PC, etc.) runs under an OS that requires drive letter
specification, and if the H/PC needs to describe the pathname of a file or directory on the
partner side, always attach an appropriate drive letter.
However, as an exception to 2) above, if the communication partner side designates a device on the
Windows CE machine for retrieving the format or other disk information, define a drive letter as
follows. These setups can be modified as required by making the appropriate description in the
registry.
Default setting : Internal RAM
C: (Define the boot drive as C: to comply with the
specifications of the PC/AT machine.)
