Sorry to but in here Craig...
Because of the way/reasons the lines are created, the algorith is simple:
If a line is followed by a line that is the same, except for an
additional path element, that line is a path, otherwise the last element
of the line is a file.
In the above example the file par is found in /usr/doc/copyright/ and
/usr/bin/; and the file par.doc is found in /usr/doc/par/. All of the
other lines are paths.
Ok, now, what was the question again?
