Node:Files, Next:Starting, Previous:Concepts, Up:Top
FWEB works with a variety of files. File names have the form
[path]/root[.ext]
, where the brackets denote optional. Here the slash
is called the prefix end character. Since this character differs
for various
operating systems, it can be changed by system installers in custom.h
(see Customization).
The character that initiates the file-name extension (normally a period)
can be changed with the -E
command-line option (see -E_).
