+%D   {definefilesynonym,definefilefallback}
+%D
+%D One of the problems with loading files is that their names
+%D can depend on the interface language. We therefore need a
+%D method to define filesynonyms. The actual synonyms are
+%D defined elsewhere, but look like:
+%D
+%D \starttyping
+%D \definefilesynonym [chemic]  [chemie]
+%D \definefilesynonym [einheit] [unit]
+%D \definefilesynonym [unit]    [unit]
+%D \stoptyping
+%D
+%D So we can say in english:
+%D
+%D \starttyping
+%D \usemodules[pictex,chemic,unit]
+%D \stoptyping
+%D
+%D and in dutch:
+%D
+%D \starttyping
+%D \usemodules[pictex,chemie,unit]
+%D \stoptyping

+
+\def\syst_files_define_synonym     [#name][#realname]{\clf_definefilesynonym {#name}{#realname}}
+\def\syst_files_define_fallback[#name][#alternatives]{\clf_definefilefallback{#name}{#alternatives}}
+
+%D \macros
+%D   {truefilename}
+%D
+%D At the system level such a filename can be called upon by
+%D saying:
+%D
+%D \starttyping
+%D \truefilename{filename/filesynonym}
+%D \stoptyping
+%D
+%D The implementation shows that nesting is supported.
