/*

'location' syntax:

To determine FS type, we're using standard KDE notation:
file:/absolute/path/file.htm
file:relative_path/xxxxx.html
/some/path/x.file               ('file:' is default)
http://www.gnome.org
file:subdir/archive.tar.gz#tar:/README.txt

special characters :
  ':' - FS identificator is before this char
  '#' - separator. It can be either HTML anchor ("index.html#news")
            (in case there is no ':' in the string to the right from it)
        or FS separator
            (example : http://www.wxhtml.org/wxhtml-0.1.tar.gz#tar:/include/wxhtml/filesys.h"
             this would access tgz archive stored on web)
  '/' - directory (path) separator. It is used to determine upper-level path.
        HEY! Don't use \ even if you're on Windows!
