+ 1.

'..' was really quite a neat entry to have ('.' I never saw any use for
though, it was something like refresh dir?)
Although most windows users probably don't know what it is, since they don't
generally go near consoles with a barge-pole, knowing what this means in
terms of filesystems is really quite handy. Having seen this in the old
filebrowser, I've ended up using this a lot these days when testing fresh
builds :)
