okay, i spoke before experimenting. confirm what i observe: the fix-embedded-paths tool will traverse a directory search path (the 3rd argument) and replace all occurrences of the <old root> with <new root>. is this correct?

Yes.

one other question: why is there a limitation that the <new root> must be shorter or the same length as <old root>?


Because it's a hack.  It's binary editing fixed-width fields, and
has no way to expand them.
