Root directory

Hello,

For information, the latest functions I sent here to get the parent 

dir and the root dir using File.split don’t work under windows. What’s
more, File::SEPARATOR is here set to “/” under windows!
(I tried with ruby 1.67-4 and 1.67-7 downloaded from
http://rubyinstaller.sourceforge.net/).

irb(main):005:0> dirUp(“c:\”)
".“
irb(main):006:0> dirUp(“c:\test”)
”.“
irb(main):011:0> dirUp(”\\regy\share\test")
".“
irb(main):012:0> dirUp(”\\regy\share\test\aa")
".“
irb(main):013:0> dirUp(”\\regy\share\test\aa\fdfhdkfdh")
".“
irb(main):014:0> File::SEPARATOR
”/"
