Casio PA-2400W manual Describing Method 1Pathname, Rules of Naming File and Directory Pathname

8.4 Describing Method

8.4.1￿Pathname

Always enclose a pathname in a pair of quotation marks. One pathname must be 255 characters or less including the two quotation marks. A 2-byte code character is counted as one character.

Example: FCHKCE /G "\casio data\*.dat" "d:\data\" "\casio data\"

Pathnames should be described in accordance with the path naming rules supported by OS of machine

￿on which the specified path is to be placed.

Observe the following rules for drive letters if describing pathnames:

Specify a pathname on the PA-2400W so it begins with the root directory (of My Handheld PC) and do not include a drive letter.

If a pathname with a drive letter is specified, the drive letter will be ignored by the FCHKCE on the PA-2400W side (This pathname specification is treated equal to a specification from the root directory without a drive letter.)

If the communication partner (PC, etc.) runs on an OS that requires drive letter specification, and if the PA-2400W requires the pathname of a file or directory on the partner side to be specified, always attach the appropriate drive letter.
