[Haskell-cafe] Handling Windows file name conventions without unix (Posix) package?

Hello,

The unix package (System.Posix) is not supported under Windows and
I wonder if there is an alternative solution that deals with the odd file
naming convention under windows (backward vs unix forward slash),
spaces in file names, etc.

It looks like System.Environment is a good substitute for System.Posix.Env,
but it is not clear how to deal with file naming conventions.

Any pointers or tips would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Dominick
