1.5 ! bisitz 3: A symb is the unique name to an instance of a resource used in a course.
! 4: For example, say you are using a problem located at
! 5: /res/domain/user/some.problem. You may want to use this problem multiple times.
! 6: Therefore each unique instance the problem is used in your course needs to be
! 7: identified differently. When you view the problem in your course, you will
! 8: notice that pathname to the problem and its unique identifier, the symb, is
! 9: listed in the URL. Although, in the URL the symb has been reformatted to be
! 10: used appropriately for the web. Therefore, if you need the symb of a resource
! 11: for a LON-CAPA application, do not copy and paste it from the URL. Instead,
! 12: display the Course Editor menu, and click the ``Content Utilities'' tab, and
! 13: then click the ``List Resource Identifiers'' link.
