Extracted a path from within a *.ram file (an URL shortcut link which points to the original *.rm file (Realplayer) at a server)

That link/path, following its function, is using (Unix/) URI style means uses a forward slash "/" within its path

e.g. http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/JonnyBecamePresidentSpeech.ram

If I want to split such a path using AHK's SplitPath command, the complete link/path will be returned within the OutFileName variable. . Looks like that command checks only for backslahes "\" ?!

Would find it helpfull if an additional argument U = Unix/URI could be added to reference the path delimiter style

SplitPath, InputVar [, OutFileName, OutDir, OutExtension, OutNameNoExt, OutDrive, U]

Good suggestion. I wonder whether it would break any scripts if SplitPath were changed to always recognize slash as being the same as backslash. Thoughts?

Thanks for spotting this.
