Each aditional dot moves you up another directory (.=current, ..=parent,
...=granparent, ....=greatgrandparent etc). Of course, if you give too
many dots for your current directory level, you get an 'invalid
directory' error.

unfortuanly, the tripple dots break the directory tree expansion, don't
they?
