I'm trying to name an object that can be a file or a directory. What's the correct terminology for this?
I've considered
handle -> rejected, object is not a handle
address -> rejected, object is not an address
object -> rejected, too generic, should be better terminology
When I say "object" in my first sentence, I'm specifically talking about a <div>
in an HTML DOM, but it could be anything.
To put my question a different way, what's the parent word of the children "file" and "directory"? e.g. a foo
can be a file, or a directory.
I've heard the phrase "file system object", although it's painful to say :)
