A word from the peanut gallery:  as soon as you think that you understand how 
this work, go try it on Windows where the "Dos Device Name" makes a mess with a 
lot of assumptions that all absolute paths start with a '/'.  Also not every OS 
or runtime environment supports the assumption of "current working directory".
