on windows, we can load scripts with UNC filename:
\l //wi/c/tmp.q
we can load csv:
t: … 0:`://wi/c/tmp.csv
but we can’t save:
save `://wi/c/t.csv
'//wi/c/t.csv. OS reports: The specified path is invalid.
`://wi/c/t.txt 0:enlist"text"
'//wi/c/t. OS reports: The specified path is invalid.
any workarounds?
I found that if you replace forward-slash /' with the normal backward ones ', it will work properly.

these three experiments with saving to UNC filenames didn’t work
