Hello,

yes, I did that and the path is valid, it becomes, well, say, "expanded". 

Except that it contains slashes ( "/" ) instead of backslashes, it is exactly 
what I expected. And to be clear: the same link works with Emacs 24.3 under 
Windows 7 as well as under Linux and Emacs 24.4.

Thank you for your much appreciated help! 

Regards,

Alexander
