I'm still working in FPD2.6a... feels like when I was teaching maths, and first grade (high school) kids come up with some problem... I know how to solve it easily, but they haven't learned that yet... so what was the workaround...

I've got that lazy that I hate it to have to manually strip the final backslash from curd() - can't use set("directory") in FPD, grrrrr.
