path_separator is a string constant for the path separator. The constant contains the value which is used by the operating system to separate lists and files from each other in paths

Windows :        "\\"

Unix :                "/"

So, e.g.:

path = directory + path_separator + filename;

results in a correct path for all operating systems, which are covered by the boost filesytem library.
