+File path handling
+------------------
+
+Files: :file:`common/path-utils.h`
+
+The paths on Linux can be at most PATH_MAX, which is 4096 (:command:`getconf`).
+For easier handling use a local variable like :code:`char path[PATH_MAX] = { 0 };`
+and for concatenation helpers :code:`path_cat_out()` or
+:code:`path_cat_out3()` and check the error values for overflows. There are
+helpers to check file type :code:`path_is_*()`.
