Just to be sure, don't forget to remove leading '/'s and add leading ':' when
there's no leading '/'. You also need to treat '..' and '.' differently, and
you may well need to do more work then all of that if the script does something 
funny, like try to '..' up to the root dir.

In general, folks'll need a little more information then that to help
out, since there are many, many things that can go wrong depending on
what the unixian code does and how it goes about it.
