Uff reading is important 😕
thanks.


But the use of "  as in "include" confuses me and especially it confuses
me that 

There is such a huge difference between 

include "Folien/teil3/images"

(Includes everything in the directory images
And 

include Folien/teil3/images

Does not do anything

Maybe the documentation should point that out a bit more explicitly ....
