Home directory
In computing, a home directory is a
directory which contains the personal files of a particular user of the system.Separating user data from system-wide data avoids redundancy and makes backups of important files relatively simple. Furthermore,
Trojan horses,
viruses and
worms running under the user's name and with their privileges will in most cases only be able to alter the files in the user's home directory, and perhaps some files belonging to workgroups the user is a part of, but not actual system files.

The History of Middle-earth
The History of Middle-earth is a 12-volume series of books published from 1983 through 1996 that collect and analyse material relating to the fiction of
J. R. R. Tolkien, compiled and edited by his son,
Christopher Tolkien. Some of the content consists of earlier versions of already published works, while other portions are new material. These books are extremely detailed, often analysing a scrap of paper to provide the full evolution of two or even three different versions of a passage that were rewritten over each other. Christopher Tolkien has documented the history of the writing of the
Middle-earth stories in as much detail as his father documented the fictional history of Middle-earth itself. However, numerous unpublished texts are still known to exist in the
Bodleian and
Marquette University libraries and in other papers held by individuals, such as the
Elvish Linguistic Fellowship.
