>Description:
      I have written two functions for C language, which operates path strings.
These are suitable for 'lib/libutil/', I think.

o abs2rel: make a relative path name from an absolute path name

abs2rel(<original path name>, <base directory>, <result>, <size of result>);

      INPUT                   INPUT                   OUTPUT
      <original path name>    <base directory>        <result>
      /usr/src                /etc                    ../usr/src


o rel2abs: make an absolute path name from a relative path name

rel2abs(<original path name>, <base directory>, <result>, <size of result>);

      INPUT                   INPUT                   OUTPUT
      <original path name>    <base directory>        <result>
      ../usr/src              /etc                    /usr/src

>How-To-Repeat:
      
>Fix:
      Archive is available at:
http://www.tamacom.com/pathconvert/pathconvert.tar.gz

(The 'lib' directory includes source code and online manual for above
functions.)
