Description:

UnixTrans is a module which translates Unix filenames into RISC OS filenames.
It translates any filename which starts with a '~', a '/' or a '.', so for
example:
/library                    -> $.library
../g                        -> ^.g
/dev/scsi/jarre/longfiles   ->  scsi::jarre.$.longfiles

If you combine this module with LongFilenames, then you have the facility to do
almost any Unix-type operation.
