Why usedirs?
|
||||||
|
------------
|
||||||
|
There are several advantages to `usedirs`, including simpler URLs, URLs that
|
||||||
|
aren't dependent on the underlying implementation (`.html`), and being able to
|
||||||
|
use URLs as tags as described in the [rel-tag
|
||||||
|
microformat](http://microformats.org/wiki/rel-tag).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The main disadvantage is that it is harder to browse using `file://` URIs,
|
||||||
|
since `file:///dir/` doesn't automatically translate to `dir/index.html`. This
|
||||||
|
is something one could fix in the browser though.
