<listitem>
	<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>

	<para>Default: <emphasis>no mangled map</emphasis></para>

	<para>Example: <command moreinfo="none">mangled map = (*;1 *;)</command></para>
