  pathname, (2) an \pytype{FSSpec} object or (3) a 3-tuple
  \code{(\var{wdRefNum}, \var{parID}, \var{name})} as described in
! \citetitle{Inside Macintosh:\ Files}. An \pytype{FSSpec} can point to
! a non-existing file, as long as the folder containing the file exists.
! Under MacPython the same is true for a pathname, but not under unix-Pyton
! because of the way pathnames and FSRefs works. See Apple's documentation
! for details.
