I have checked on my Windows machine and it seems that DGD (version
1.1.119 and probably all later versions) understands backslashes as
well as forward slashes in the directory parameter.

(If you want to use backslashes, however, remember to escape each of
them with an additional backslash as this parameter is an LPC string.
That is, use "..\\tmp\\swap", not "..\tmp\swap".)
