Opposing slashes in file paths, Mixed environment variable operators

I've noticed that in our configuration files (psappsrv.cfg, psprcs.cfg, xdo.cfg etc.) there are certain paths that have opposing slashes (forward slash & back slash) in them.  For example,   in our xdo.cfg path: f:\apps\tools\pt85416/appserv/xdo.

Do these need to be congruent with what the operating system expects (linux = /, Windows = \)?

There is a similar situation with the environment variable operators.  On our Linux servers, the psappsrv.cfg file has entries where Windows environment variable operators (i.e. - %) are used.  I'd expect them to be Linux environment variable operators (i.e. - $).  For example, in psappsrv.cfg RCCBL PRDBIN=%PS_CUST_HOME%\cblbin%PS_COBOLTYPE%:%PS_HOME%\cblbin%PS_COBOLTYPE%

Howdy, Stranger!
