This should work. It does on my Windows XP machine, in the directory
	C:\Squeak\3.6

when the image is in the same directory.

where the following is set:

(computer name is ned-tablet)
assoc .image=squeak_image
ftype squeak_image=c:\squeak\squeak.exe "%1" %*
net share Squeak=c:\Squeak

These work:

squeak.image file:///squeak/3.6/hi.st
squeak.image file:/squeak/3.6/hi.st

and these don't:

squeak.image file://c:/squeak/3.6/hi.st
squeak.image file:////ned-tablet/Squeak/3.6/hi.st


And if I change directory to (say) C:\ and type in

c:\squeak\3.6\squeak.image

and then try to open a FileList2 I don't see it open correctly.

If I further query in a workspace:

FileDirectory default             => 'c:\squeak\3.6'

(note that this is all lower case).

And then if I set it explicitly:

FileDirectory setDefaultDirectory: 'C:\Squeak\3.6'

and then open a FileList2 it works fine.

This sounds like a bug with the FileList that I fixed some time ago. Perhaps 
that fix has not yet made it into the image.

They aren't connected. I think what's happening is that the processing of the 
command-line arguments is wrong; they aren't getting converted into the right 
file:// urls.
