Compatibility of OSCAR data between Linux and Windows
#1
Question 
Compatibility of OSCAR data between Linux and Windows
I have been running SH and now OSCAR just fine on my Linux machine (ubuntu).  But now I also need to have a copy of my data on a Windows Laptop, in hopes that I can share the reports with my doctor over telemedicine visits.  (His telemedicine software seems not to like Linux.)

Can I just copy the entire contents of the OSCAR Data folder from one machine to the other?

RE: Compatibility of OSCAR data between Linux and Windows
Basically, yes.   I haven't checked OSCAR's configuration files but Linux uses forward slashes (/) in a path declaration and a Windows OS uses backslashes (\).  I don't know if this may cause problems. I have noticed in certain areas of Windows, it will accept either character without hollering.
