In the preferences dialog I want the build command to be:
sourcenav-ant.bat VSS/LegacyIntegrator buildFull
but snav insists on changing it to
sourcenav-ant.bat VSS\LegacyIntegrator buildFull
I took a look at the source, in multimake.tcl line 215 is :
@@set $this-makecommand [file nativename $sn_options(both,make-command)]
Apparently SNav is trying to be smart by converting paths to the
native format. The problem is I don't want that. It won't work with
a '\'. (The build command invokes bash, which runs a shell script
that runs ant (a make replacement for java) and the shell script needs
the / because the \L turns into L and the resulting path DNE).
I changed the line to :
@@set $this-makecommand $sn_options(both,make-command)
and the build window now appears correctly. However, if I open the
preferences dialog again, it has munged the command.
What can I hack to remove this "feature" and get the string exactly as
I entered?
Thanks,

This bit really bugs me.
You could try and double up the "/" i.e. "//".
Hopefullt it's gone now but, they where some
dialogs where you had to replace each slash with
four (i.e. "C:\\\\hello\\\\world\\\\test.c").
