About relative file path

Currently, I only know some relative paths such as:
<xypath>
<clipboard>
<curpath>
"Desktop"
%temp%
%programfiles%
%winsysdir%

Are there any others? Is there a relative path for CD-Rom drive or USB drive?

Besides, I think it would be much better if we can add some navigation command to a relative path such as:
<xypath>\...\
will move up one level from xyplorer folder.

XY vars i have found in help > User Menu > XYplorer Native Variables

For %...% vars open Windows command line (DOS-Box) and type set <enter>

I didn't see this somewhere.

That's possible. But i have not really test this with XY right now.

See f.ex. http://88.191.26.34/XYwiki/index.php/Go ... tive_Paths

Or try:
- select an file
- use 'Copy To...' <Ctrl+F7>
- type in two dots ..
- press enter

HTH?

Thanks stefan, I've found a list of relative path:

Move up one level can be done by 2 dots:
..\<xypath>
