+    // main program directory, e.g. this happens in at least the following
+    // common cases:
+    //  1. The program is in "bin" subdirectory of the installation directory.
+    //  2. The program is in "debug" subdirectory of the directory containing
+    //     sources and data files during development
+    //
+    // By calling this function you instruct the class to remove the last
+    // component of the path if it matches its argument. Notice that it may be
+    // called more than once, e.g. you can call both IgnoreAppSubDir("bin") and
+    // IgnoreAppSubDir("debug") to take care of both production and development
+    // cases above but that each call will only remove the last path component.
+    // Finally note that the argument can contain wild cards so you can also
+    // call IgnoreAppSubDir("vc*msw*") to ignore all build directories at once
+    // when using wxWidgets-inspired output directories names.
