Subject: Please confirm this file-name-directory behavior
Date: Fri, 14 Sep 2007 14:31:24 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1189780284.881345.172130@o80g2000hse.googlegroups.com> (raw)

Hi,

I am running Emacs 22.1.1 on Windows XP, and I observe that file-name-
directory does not check whether the actual directory exists.  It just
parses the string argument for the directory & file parts.

I am not complaining about it not checking whether the directory
exists, I just want to confirm that this behavior is by design.

Thanks,

Mirko
