+;;@subsubheading File Locking
+;;
+;;@noindent
+;;Unix file-locking is focussed on write permissions for segments of a
+;;existing file. While this might be employed for (binary) database
+;;access, it is not used for everyday contention (between users) for
+;;text files.
+;;
+;;@noindent
+;;Microsoft has several file-locking protocols. Their model denies
+;;write access to a file if any reader has it open. This is too
+;;restrictive. Write access is denied even when the reader has
+;;reached end-of-file. And tracking read access (which is much more
+;;common than write access) causes havoc when remote hosts crash or
+;;disconnect.
+;;
+;;@noindent
+;;It is bizarre that the concept of multi-user contention for
+;;modifying files has not been adequately addressed by either of the
+;;large operating system development efforts. There is further irony
+;;that both camps support contention detection and resolution only
+;;through weak conventions of some their document editing programs.
+;;
+;;@noindent
+;;@cindex file-lock
+;;The @dfn{file-lock} procedures implement a transaction method for file
+;;replacement compatible with the methods used by the GNU @dfn{emacs}
+;;text editor on Unix systems and the Microsoft @dfn{Word} editor.
+;;@cindex emacs
+;;
+;;@noindent
+;;@cindex certificate
+;;Both protocols employ what I term a @dfn{certificate} containing the
+;;user, hostname, time, and (on Unix) process-id.
+;;Intent to replace @var{file} is indicated by adding to @var{file}'s
+;;directory a certificate object whose name is derived from
+;;@var{file}.
+;;
+;;@noindent
+;;The Microsoft Word certificate is contained in a 162 byte file named
+;;for the visited @var{file} with a @samp{~$} prefix.
+;;Emacs/Unix creates a symbolic link to a certificate named for the
+;;visited @var{file} prefixed with @samp{.#}.
+;;Because Unix systems can import Microsoft file systems, these
+;;routines maintain and check both Emacs and Word certificates.
+
+;;Returns a string naming the path of the emacs-style file-lock symbolic
+;;link associated with @1.
