LYNX-DEV problem moving files across directories using `../' |

The nicer DIRED gets, the more I use it, but then the more problems
seem to show up. I was trying to move a file `boutcgi' while in
the directory `$HOME/.lynx/Folder/CGI' to a directory parallel to
the directory above the current directory, namely `$HOME/.lynx/Books'.
I would have expected `../../Books/' to be acceptable as the `new
location for file'. However I got the warning: `Illegal filename;
request ignored.' Entering the full path, `~/.lynx/Books/'
worked okay. No big deal, but it's not strictly un*x-like. __Henry
