I'm using CM on a Mac with OS X. I would like to use an external drive on
my Windows XP computer to store .cm and .mid files. I have the drive
shared on my Mac Desktop. The name reads 'EXT (E)' - I named the
connection 'EXT' and it's drive 'E' on the Windows computer. (shell "ls
/volumes") lists the local Mac drive and
'workgroup;eps042002'. 'workgroup' is the 'domain' name on the Windows
computer. 'eps042002' is the name of the computer according to XP. When I
type in (cd "/volumes/workgroup;eps042002") I get an 'Illegal directory
string' error. I can then (shell "ls") and get a listing, but keep getting
the error. (load xxx) doesn't work. I assume CM is using OS 9
directory/file name rules or something. Is there a something I can call
the drive that CM will understand?
