I've never used std::string so no idea how practicable it would be for
this kind of thing. Also, file/directory handling is only in Boost and
not the current C++ standard as far as I know - so it might not really
be so readily available without installing anything extra until the next
C++ spec is out and compilers widely support it. Maybe we could use A5's
directory handling instead though.
Personally I also would have a slight preference for C over C++, but
that's independent of the above.
