# Changes
- Update functions to both accept fixed paths starting with a drive letter, while at the same time keeping their current functionality exactly the same as before.
# Examples
## Same behavior as before:
- `os.listdirs("")` will still list all directories in the Into the Breach directory.
- `os.listdirs("mods")` will still list all directories in the Into the Breach mods directory.
## New capabilities:
- `os.listdirs("C:")` will list all directories in the C directory.
- `os.listdirs("D:")` will list all directories in the D directory.
- `os.listdirs(GetSavedataLocation())` will list all directories in the Into the Breach save directory.
# Why not use io.popen or os.execute instead?
- Listing files and directories using io.popen or os.execute causes a program to briefly open, which can cause flickering issues which negatively impact the player experience.

I am going to make these modifications to the functions with a separate dll in my own project that uses it, but decided to add this pull request with the same changes in the event someone continues work on this repo sometimes in the future. |
