2.4 What is the Amiga equivalent of . (Current directory)?

   The AmigaDOS equivalent for the . representing the current directory
on Unix and certain non-reentrant interrupt handlers is the empty
string, which is written as "".
   Example:
         COPY S:Startup-Sequence ""
copies your Startup-Sequence to the current directory.
   There is some FD software available to patch a Unix-like
interpretation of . and .. into the AmigaDOS, including, but not
limited to, Martin Scott's UnixDirs. (Aminet,
`os20/util/UnixDirsII.lha' or Fish-disk 837)
