excuse this slip of memory, but do you need the full path PLUS  the
filename to use access? or just the filename?

say that i'm i n ~/tmp/foob and want to deetermine  wheether i can
access file foob.  do i need to use "access("home/kline/tmp/foob", F_OK)"
or will "access("foob", F_OK)"  do the trick?  i have already rub 
"chdir("~/tmp")" in main(). please note.

gary
