References a mentioned file#

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

A file is suggested as pointing to another when a path it mentions leads to that file, in its own folder or elsewhere in the data, except inside an installed program.

references_a_mentioned_file version 1

  • Kind of rule: Pairs suggested for a look (proposes). Proposes that two files are related in one of the eight ways, for a person to look at. A proposal is never a conclusion.

  • What it concludes: references

  • 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

  • Where it looks for pairs: within mentioned

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What this rule concludes about something is withdrawn when any of these rules concludes about the same thing: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

What it does

minimum_resolution

"unique_suffix"

one of exact, unique_suffix, unique_basename, ambiguous

How firmly a mention must resolve. Exact is its own folder or its root; unique_suffix admits a path found only from a root of the pool, which rests on the laboratory treating that root as its base.
