breadcrumb

All this breadcrumbing finished, you can put the meat on a grid over a baking dish and leave it until you are ready to cook it.

Along those same lines, creating separate folders can enable you to use "breadcrumbing," which is another navigation aid (discussed in the section "Determining How to Organize the Information," later in this chapter).

The process of breadcrumbing is the means by which a game writer can lead the player forward with a trail of clues, or the level designers can lead the player via more physical symbols.
