/**
 * g_file_test:
 * @filename: a filename to test in the GLib file name encoding
 * @test: bitfield of #GFileTest flags
 * 
 * Returns %TRUE if any of the tests in the bitfield @test are
 * %TRUE. For example, <literal>(G_FILE_TEST_EXISTS | 
 * G_FILE_TEST_IS_DIR)</literal> will return %TRUE if the file exists; 
 * the check whether it's a directory doesn't matter since the existence 
 * test is %TRUE. With the current set of available tests, there's no point
 * passing in more than one test at a time.
 * 
 * Apart from %G_FILE_TEST_IS_SYMLINK all tests follow symbolic links,
 * so for a symbolic link to a regular file g_file_test() will return
 * %TRUE for both %G_FILE_TEST_IS_SYMLINK and %G_FILE_TEST_IS_REGULAR.
 *
 * Note, that for a dangling symbolic link g_file_test() will return
 * %TRUE for %G_FILE_TEST_IS_SYMLINK and %FALSE for all other flags.
 *
 * You should never use g_file_test() to test whether it is safe
 * to perform an operation, because there is always the possibility
 * of the condition changing before you actually perform the operation.
 * For example, you might think you could use %G_FILE_TEST_IS_SYMLINK
 * to know whether it is is safe to write to a file without being
 * tricked into writing into a different location. It doesn't work!
 *
 * <informalexample><programlisting>
 * /&ast; DON'T DO THIS &ast;/
 *  if (!g_file_test (filename, G_FILE_TEST_IS_SYMLINK)) {
 *    fd = g_open (filename, O_WRONLY);
 *    /&ast; write to fd &ast;/
 *  }
 * </programlisting></informalexample>
 *
 * Another thing to note is that %G_FILE_TEST_EXISTS and
 * %G_FILE_TEST_IS_EXECUTABLE are implemented using the access()
 * system call. This usually doesn't matter, but if your program
 * is setuid or setgid it means that these tests will give you
 * the answer for the real user ID and group ID, rather than the
 * effective user ID and group ID.
 *
 * On Windows, there are no symlinks, so testing for
 * %G_FILE_TEST_IS_SYMLINK will always return %FALSE. Testing for
 * %G_FILE_TEST_IS_EXECUTABLE will just check that the file exists and
 * its name indicates that it is executable, checking for well-known
 * extensions and those listed in the %PATHEXT environment variable.
 *
 * Return value: whether a test was %TRUE

/**
 * g_build_filename:
 * @first_element: the first element in the path
 * @Varargs: remaining elements in path, terminated by %NULL
 * 
 * Creates a filename from a series of elements using the correct
 * separator for filenames.
 *
 * On Unix, this function behaves identically to <literal>g_build_path
 * (G_DIR_SEPARATOR_S, first_element, ....)</literal>.
 *
 * On Windows, it takes into account that either the backslash
 * (<literal>\</literal> or slash (<literal>/</literal>) can be used
 * as separator in filenames, but otherwise behaves as on Unix. When
 * file pathname separators need to be inserted, the one that last
 * previously occurred in the parameters (reading from left to right)
 * is used.
 *
 * No attempt is made to force the resulting filename to be an absolute
 * path. If the first element is a relative path, the result will
 * be a relative path. 
 * 
 * Return value: a newly-allocated string that must be freed with g_free().
