| ANSI Common Lisp 19 Filenames 19.1 Overview of Filenames ### 19.1.3 Parsing Namestrings Into Pathnames Parsing is the operation used to convert a namestring into a pathname. Except in the case of parsing logical pathname namestrings, this operation is implementation-dependent, because the format of namestrings is implementation-dependent. A conforming implementation is free to accommodate other file system features in its pathname representation and provides a parser that can process such specifications in namestrings. Conforming programs must not depend on any such features, since those features will not be portable.
