Description Usage Arguments Value Note See Also Examples

Checks to see if the path is a Windows drive.

1	is_windows_drive(x)

`x`	A character vector of file paths. Defaults to files in the current directory.

A logical vector, TRUE when the path is a Windows drive name. On non-Windows machines, the return value is FALSE everywhere.

The check is done by regular expression: values are considered to be Windows drive name if they consist of a letter followed by a colon, optionally followed by a slash or backslash. Paths are standardardized before checking, so . and .. are resolved to their actual locations rather than always returning FALSE.
