So, to sum up, is it possible that the current working directory of an
application is different for GEMDOS and the mintlib?

The path may look different, but feeding a path retrieved via the mintlib
back to mintlib should work. Feeding a path got from GEMDOS back to
GEMDOS obviously works. Feeding a path from mintlib back to GEMDOS
will fail because of this.

Right or wrong, this is how it's been done. It's all fixable if we need
it to be
though.

Basically, you're telling me a GEM application cannot open a file in its
working directory with a simple fopen("filename", "r")? You need to retrieve
the current working directory first?
No. But I'm asking what the fopen() failure was and a test case to see what the problem really is. 


So, back to a testcase, and what was the error code of fopen() ?

NULL (I know, it's not helpful, but I'm annoyed right now).



What is errno set to ?
