+# Update (2007-07-11): Added fix for mysterious breakage on Chris's machine
+# that occurred for no apparent reason. An extra / was being put on the 
+# front of the returned Windows path, e.g., /D:/blah/blah. Added a sed
+# to remove it when necessary.

 # Arguments:
 #	$(1)	file name of item to be resolved, WITHOUT the "file:///"
