Subject: [SWIPL] absolute_file_name/2

Hello, 

i am using SWI on linux, (2 different machines 2 different pl versiona, 
                          one is 4.0.2)

when i do (e.g. on 4.0.2)

?- absolute_file_name('~', A ).

i get 

A = '/usr/nicos/pl/~' ;

(where /usr/nicos/pl is my pwd at typing % pl) 

is there something wrong with my installations, 
or i am just misreading the manual ?
or is it Linux specific problem ?

does anybody get anything more sensible on a different OS ?

regards 

nicos
