However, there are -certain values that _cannot_ be interpolated: - -- The literal string `.` -- The literal string `..` -- Any text that contains a forward slash (`/`) - -The intended use for path interpolation is to take user input which may or may -not be trustworthy and interpret that value as a single path component name, -i.e. the name of a directory or file. If a user were to supply a value like -`..` or `foo/baz`, it would risk navigating into a directory other than -intended. Paths can be created from text with slashes using -`Path.from_text(text)` if you need to use arbitrary text as a file path. - # API [API documentation](../api/paths.md) |
