In the user manual, I am wondering how to refer to directories. Intuitively I used "directory" rather than "dir" because the latter is a bit informal. But it occurs to me that "folder" will be better understood by users -- particularly novice users, who are the most likely to need a user manual. It's also shorter than "directory", which will help the HTML output (which isn't hyphenated in most browsers).
If I use "folder", I'll need to be consistent. That means mentioning it in doc/manual/HACKING[0] and sweeping the existing documentation. Does anyone have an opinion on this issue?
