* @short_description: File and Directory Handling
- * @include: gio.h

* @see_also: #GFileInfo, #GFileEnumerator
*
* #GFile is a high level abstraction for manipulating files on a
* virtual file system. #GFile<!-- -->s are lightweight, immutable
* objects that do no I/O upon creation. It is necessary to understand that
- * #GFile objects do not represent files, merely a handle to a file. All
- * file I/O is implemented as streaming operations (see #GInputStream and
+ * #GFile objects do not represent files, merely an identifier for a file. All
+ * file content I/O is implemented as streaming operations (see #GInputStream and
* #GOutputStream).
- *
+ *
* To construct a #GFile, you can use:
* g_file_new_for_path() if you have a path.
* g_file_new_for_uri() if you have a URI.
* g_file_new_for_commandline_arg() for a command line argument.
- *
- * You can move through the file system with #GFile handles with
- * g_file_get_parent() to get a handle to the parent directory.
- * g_file_get_child() to get a handle to a child within a directory.
- * g_file_resolve_relative_path() to resolve a relative path between
- * two #GFile<!-- -->s.
+ * g_file_parse_name() from a utf8 string gotten from g_file_get_parse_name().
+ *
+ * One way to think of a #GFile is as an abstraction of a pathname. For normal
+ * files the system pathname is what is stored internally, but as #GFile<!-- -->s
+ * are extensible it could also be something else that corresponds to a pathname
+ * in a userspace implementation of a filesystem.
+ *
+ * #GFile<!-- -->s make up hierarchies of directories and files that correspond to the
+ * files on a filesystem. You can move through the file system with #GFile using
+ * g_file_get_parent() to get an identifier for the parent directory, g_file_get_child()
+ * to get a child within a directory, g_file_resolve_relative_path() to resolve a relative
+ * path between two #GFile<!-- -->s. There can be multiple hierarchies, so you may not
+ * end up at the same root if you repeatedly call g_file_get_parent() on two different
+ * files.
+ *
+ * All #GFile<!-- -->s have a basename (get with g_file_get_basename()). These names
+ * are byte strings that are used to identify the file on the filesystem (relative to
+ * its parent directory) and there is no guarantees that they have any particular charset
+ * encoding or even make any sense at all. If you want to use filenames in a user
+ * interface you should use the display name that you can get by requesting the
+ * %G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_STANDARD_DISPLAY_NAME attribute with g_file_query_info().
+ * This is guaranteed to be in utf8 and can be used in a user interface. But always
+ * store the real basename or the #GFile to use to actually access the file, because
+ * there is no way to go from a display name to the actual name.
+ *
+ * Using #GFile as an identifier has the same weaknesses as using a path in that
+ * there may be multiple aliases for the same file. For instance, hard or
+ * soft links may cause two different #GFile<!-- -->s to refer to the same file.
+ * Other possible causes for aliases are: case insensitive filesystems, short
+ * and long names on Fat/NTFS, or bind mounts in linux. If you want to check if
+ * two #GFile<!-- -->s point to the same file you can query for the
+ * %G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ID_FILE attribute. Note that #GFile does some trivial
+ * canonicalization of pathnames passed in, so that trivial differences in the
+ * path string used at creation (dupplicated slashes, slash at end of path, "."
+ * or ".." path segments, etc) does not create different #GFile<!-- -->s.
*
* Many #GFile operations have both synchronous and asynchronous versions
* to suit your application. Asynchronous versions of synchronous functions
