Well, at least device... the C:foo in MS-DOS and the DRC0:file in VMS
all specify physical devices (which might be mapped in DOS, yes I know).
No one can come up with a struct containing everything which might be in
a path someday. All that was needed by the original poster was a way to
find out the "filename" as understood by the local filesystem.
