+ <para>This is for those who want to directly map UNIX
+ file names which cannot be represented on Windows/DOS. The mangling
+ of names is not always what is needed. In particular you may have
+ documents with file extensions that differ between DOS and UNIX.
+ For example, under UNIX it is common to use <filename moreinfo="none">.html</filename>
+ for HTML files, whereas under Windows/DOS <filename moreinfo="none">.htm</filename>
+ is more commonly used.</para>
+
+ <para>So to map <filename moreinfo="none">html</filename> to <filename moreinfo="none">htm</filename>
+ you would use:</para>
+
+ <para><command moreinfo="none">mangled map = (*.html *.htm)</command></para>
+
+ <para>One very useful case is to remove the annoying <filename moreinfo="none">;1
+ </filename> off the ends of filenames on some CDROMs (only visible
+ under some UNIXes). To do this use a map of (*;1 *;).</para>
