file system (Or "path") The specification of a node (file or
directory) in a hierarchical file system. The path is
usually specified by listing the nodes top-down, separating
the directories by the pathname separator ("/" in Unix,
"" in MS-DOS).
A pathname may be an absolute pathname or a relativepathname. The part of the pathname of a file after the last
separator is called the basename.
