comment is 'Portable operating system access protocol.',
remarks is [
'File names overview:' - 'The main idea is that file names should be operating-system independent. As such, predicates are needed to convert between portable file names and operating-system specific file names. The solution chosen is to use URL syntax for portable file names.',
'Local and remote file names:' - 'A (portable) file name may point to either a local file or a remote file.',
'URL file names:' - 'These are file names which start with an access protocol (e.g. {http, https, ftp, gopher, file}://).',
'Absolute file names:' - 'These are file names that always point to a local file. They always start with a slash character (/).',
'Relative file names:' - 'These are file names that always point to a local file. A file name is a relative file name if it does not start with a slash character or a file access protocol (including the :// characters).',
'Canonical file names' - 'These are file names where any environment variables was been expanded and where the sequences for current (.) and parent (..) directories have been resolved.',
'Time stamps:' - 'Time stamps are used for representing current, system time and in file properties to represent creation, modification, and access times. Time stamps are system-dependent terms but that can be compared (e.g. when testing which of two given files is older).']]).
