Path#expandandFile.expand_pathare currently hardcoded to traverse from the home directory only for paths starting with~/, but~\should be valid for Windows paths, and Powershell for example does support~\. This PR adds it.The construction
File.expand_path(File.join("~", "a"), home: true)now produces a subdirectory of the home directory, and works on both POSIX and Windows paths.
