I am always befuddled re/ naming variables which refer to files though have finally settled on simply naming streams as i/o/io/stream as situations dictate. I still do not know if the names of variables of type basic_string<> or filesystem::path which refer to files be "something_file" "something_file_name" "something_file_path" or "something_path" or perhaps something_else. I seek your wise counsel

I bovinely use 'something_filename' for file names, 'something_filepath' for file paths.

Alice was walking beside the White Knight in Looking Glass Land.
"You are sad." the Knight said in an anxious tone: "let me sing you a song to comfort you."
"Is it very long?" Alice asked, for she had heard a good deal of poetry that day.
"It's long." said the Knight, "but it's very, very beautiful. Everybody that hears me sing it,
either it brings tears to their eyes, or else,"
"Or else what?" said Alice, for the Knight had made a sudden pause.
"Or else it doesn't, you know. The name of the song is called 'Haddocks' Eyes.'"
"Oh, that's the name of the song, is it?" Alice said, trying to feel interested.
"No, you don't understand," the Knight said, looking a little vexed. "That's what the name
is called. The name really is 'The Aged, Aged Man.'"
"Then I ought to have said 'That's what the song is called'?" Alice corrected herself.
"No you oughtn't: that's another thing. The song is called 'Ways and Means' but that's only
what it's called, you know!"
"Well, what is the song then?" said Alice, who was by this time completely bewildered.
"I was coming to that," the Knight said. "The song really is 'A-sitting On a Gate': and the
tune's my own invention."

I'm dumb, I do simple things :
std::string settingsFolderName;
std::filesystem::path settingFolderPath;
std::string settingsFileName;
std::filesystem::path settingsFilePath;
I make sure the user know I'm using either a filename of a file path.

Have you ever thought that reading style guidelines for your language just might give you some ideas ? [^], [^] ...
And, how about reading the guidelines for this Forum before posting ?

I suggest you do what you need to do in response to what irritates you.

What computer goodies did you all get for Christmas?

A new SSD for my Desktop. Current is 120GB, new is 480GB. Windows takes up most of the current drive. Just procrastinating cloning the drive and installing the new one.
Also got myself a new keyboard as my old one was literally falling apart (plastic key spring widgets were breaking and jamming up things, and causing the keys to fall off).
On a side note, my Uncle sent my mom a box of Captain Crunch as a present, as he has done the last two years as well. My mom used to love it as a kid. He also sent her some Liquor filled Belgian chocolates.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Am replacing my π· of a machine AMD A6-9225 w/ a Dell OptiPlex 7040 i7-6700 + 16G DDR4 + PCIe SSD VROOM VROOM. Also considering treating myself to Perixx ERGO Mechanical Keyboard - PERIBOARD-535 Full-Size as I have never owned a mechanical keyboard. I find I enjoy the occasional clickity click the current Perixx PERIBOARD 512 provides despite the membrane switches though the macro feature of the 535 is not as I prefer.

I got myself a new keyboard, and a memory upgrade for my laptop.
(I wish I could get a memory upgrade for myself  )

I wonder what Saint Nicholas of Myra would have bought for himself to celebrate the joy of Christmas, if he were living today.

Saint Nicholas - Wikipedia
Quote: Saint Nicholas is the patron saint of sailors, merchants, archers, repentant thieves, children, brewers, pawnbrokers, unmarried people, and students in various cities and countries around Europe.
IOW, a Christmas celebration in the spirit of St. Nicholas would involve going into debt to purchase gifts for children and booze for the adults.
Sounds much like the modern version of Christmas.
