Hi Everyone, i need some assistance which cracked my head for a few days. I've tried alot to find out every q&a about Backslash & Forwards slash, but it wasn't really the answer that i needed.

I have a dos game say in my ms0: and let's say HOMM1 is the folder for instance

so in the dosbox.conf i've set
mount C ms0:\Homm1 <------- It is using Backslash
so it doesn't work, it shows file does not exist.

then i changed it to
mount C ms0:/Homm1 <------- Using Forward Slash this time
then it works and i manage to mount it.

But my problem is, when i play a game like Heroes of M & M,
the moment i want to save a game it will hit errors because in the game which they precoded fiding the directry using "\" backslash instead of "/" forward slash.
[u]
The error looks something like this below:[/u]
.\Save\autosave.sav not found

Anyone could let me know what should i do to solve this? Sorry if my question been repeated or sounds noob.

what do you mean by using //??? in dos??? BTW i'm refering to a precoded application or Game which uses .\ to search the file in the save folder. Which means there is no option for you to use // or type in the address of the folder.
