Plugin File System Path Specifier

A plugin file system path consists of a plugin file system name, a ':' (colon) delimiter, and a plugin-specific path. The plugin file system names can be found in the Plugins Manager dialog box, see line FS Name. The plugin-specific path is defined entirely by the plugin; the only limitation is a maximum length of 259 characters.
