That is interesting.I guess you are getting around my issue by moving the file definition to the settings string, whereas I had been hoping I could just keep it all in the configuration file.
This might be a way, at least my Java code could construct the settings string with the appropriate file separator for the runtime system. It is may be more work than I had been hoping.

When you say the table is searched for on the path one gives when specifying the configuration file, do you mean actually located in the same directory next to the configuration file or do you mean it still uses the liblouis/tables and liblouisutdml/lbu_files directory trees?If you give the original configuration file a path liblouisutdml and liblouis will look for files in that path as well as the default path.I think a little code will be needed to make path specifications platform-independent. There is a variable called ud->file_sep thatcontains the separator character for the platform. The module paths.c isthe place to start.

If you give just the file name with no path component (eg. en-us-g2.ctb) then it appears liblouisutdml looks in the default data path. If giving a path component then you have the platform specific path separators.So my original question of how to give it in a platform independent manner?Also how can I specify the file will be found in the same directory as the configuration file I am referencing it from?
