Now here's another random thing:

The syntax for a drive is a letter followed by a colon.
The syntax for a device is a few letters followed by a colon.
The syntax for an ADS is a file name followed by a colon followed by a 
stream name.

So consider the string "C:Foo".

Is that the file "Foo" in the current directory on "C:"?
Or is that a file named "C" with an ADS named "Foo"?

Answers on a postcard...
