..\ or ../ is up a directory
.\  or ./ is the same directory

I believe this is actually linux native though

RE: linking files back to the root
Windows uses "\" as the directory separator, whilst *nix uses "/".  Windows accepts "/" as well, but "\" is often used as an escape character, so I can't see it working on Linux.

.. = up one level
. = current directory
/ = root on *nix whilst \ is for Windows.
