in thread syntax for URI of files?

Yipes!

I can't find it in the Apocalypse now. But I know I read something quite specific on that idea, that unifying file names across OS's by using URL syntax will eliminate some of the crud in writing portable scripts. Perhaps it didn't make it into the Apoclypse, or at least not covered yet.

    I think it would've made it into the apocalypses already. You may have remembered something from perl6-language or one of the RFC proposals, since I recall it being proposed, but it's definitely a non-starter. Optional, perhaps, but definitely not mandatory.
