Subject: system-independent path for source()

I would like to use the same source files with UNIX and MacOS Carbon 
versions of R. Some of these source files access other source files 
through the source function, but UNIX separates directories with "/" and 
MacOS separates them with ":" and the beginning of the path is also 
different on each system. Is there a way to write the source files so 
that they can use source() with system-independent paths?

Or would it be easier for me to convert the source files to packages and 
use library()?
