AW: error in revdb_connect with special chars in path

[viktoras didziulis]

possible workaround would be using relative path instead of absolute and 
then
put "lexikon.db" into dbPath
put revOpenDatabase("sqlite",dbPath,,,,) into dbId

When working in IDE first change your defaultFolder to be applications 
folder. Or alternatively you might set your default folder to whatever 
is in your gPfadDB
