The forward slash (/) is quite popular. For example web pages' addresses
begin with "http://";. (My quotation marks.)

Yet the forward slash is not acceptable for many computer functions. For
example the slash cannot be used for Windows Explorer names.

Is there a way to make the slash acceptable? If so, how can I make the
forward slash acceptable?

Thank you,
