| You can use `~/' in a file name to mean your home directory, or
| `~USER-ID/' to mean the home directory of a user whose login name is
| `user-id'(1).

| `$' in a file name is used to substitute an environment variable.
| The environment variable name consists of all the alphanumeric
| characters after the `$'; alternatively, it can be enclosed in braces
| after the `$'. For example, if you have used the shell command `export
| FOO=rms/hacks' to set up an environment variable named `FOO', then you
| can use `/u/$FOO/test.c' or `/u/${FOO}/test.c' as an abbreviation for
| `/u/rms/hacks/test.c'. If the environment variable is not defined, no
| substitution occurs: `/u/$notdefined' stands for itself (assuming the
| environment variable `notdefined' is not defined).
