Note written as a file name#

This page is generated from the code and must not be edited by hand.

An empty text file whose name is a sentence is a note someone left, and its name is what it says, so it is never counted as an empty file.

note_written_as_a_file_name version 1

  • Kind of rule: What files are (classifies). Says what a file or a folder is, by placing it in a class.

  • What it concludes: a class

  • Reasoning: defeasible. A conclusion is usually right, and is retracted when a rule it names concludes against it.

  • What it reads: one file at a time

Is it available in this version?#

Yes. The engine runs it.

What would defeat it#

What this rule concludes about something is withdrawn when any of these rules concludes about the same thing:

  • installed_software_in_folder: A folder is recognized as an installed program, such as a copy of Fiji or a Python environment, from the parts it holds, a name ending .app, its program-style subfolders or a majority of program files; its files are still indexed and read, and rules about experiments leave them alone.
