Yes. I would consider it highly likely that people use the system as documented.

Yes, getcwd getdcwd is the function that needs to get involved to make C: resolve correctly.

    Thank you. A fixed Path::Tiny has been released to CPAN as version 0.029.

      Cwd::getcwd doesn't take arguments, but ::realpath does

      $ prove t\zzz-spec.t t\zzz-spec.t .. 1/? # Failed test 'path('C:')' # at t\zzz-spec.t line 206. # got: 'C:/Documents and Settings/username' # expected: 'D:/perl/cpan/build/Path-Tiny-0.029-r_iWUJ' # Looks like you failed 1 test of 91. t\zzz-spec.t .. Dubious, test returned 1 (wstat 256, 0x100) Failed 1/91 subtests

      $ perl -MCwd -le " print Cwd::getcwd(q{C:})" D:/perl/cpan/build $ perl -MCwd -le " print Cwd::realpath(q{C:})" C:/Documents and Settings/username
        It probably should have been getdcwd instead of getcwd.

        I believe that's an error on my part - I meant getdcwd but typed getcwd. getdcwd is the (Win32) function that takes a volume letter as argument.
