A suggestion for the dbusearea()

[Itamar Lins]

Hi!
It would be interesting for the dbusearea() function to accept the "~" parameter to open a file in the Linux user's home directory.

Here get a error ->  dbUseArea(.T., "DBFCDX", "~/database/mydata.dbf", "DBF_EST", .T.)

Works ->  dbUseArea(.T., "DBFCDX", "/home/itamar/database/mydata.dbf", "DBF_EST", .T.)

Best regards,

Itamar M. Lins Jr.

I think the tilde is a bash thing.

There should be a ENV variable set to the home dir, or you should process /etc/passwd
