8.4 Describing Method
8.4.1 Pathname
Always enclose a pathname in a pair of quotation marks. One pathname must be 255 characters or less
including the two quotation marks. A 2-byte code character is counted as one character.
Example: FCHKCE /G "\casio data\*.dat" "d:\data\" "\casio data\"
Pathnames should be described in accordance with the path naming rules supported by OS of machine
on which the specified path is to be placed.
Observe the following rules for drive letters if describing pathnames:
Specify a pathname on the PA-2400W so it begins with the root directory (of My Handheld PC) and do
not include a drive letter.
If a pathname with a drive letter is specified, the drive letter will be ignored by the FCHKCE on the
PA-2400W side (This pathname specification is treated equal to a specification from the root directory
without a drive letter.)
If the communication partner (PC, etc.) runs on an OS that requires drive letter specification, and if the
PA-2400W requires the pathname of a file or directory on the partner side to be specified, always attach
the appropriate drive letter.
