I have no idea what you could mean by that. The data structure used to represent a filesystem on all OS filesystems I've used is a graph of directories and files. A filesystem object is located by traversing a path in that graph. Of course there's a string representation, especially for human use
if you define everything that can be identified by one or more well-defined strings as a string, everything is a string.
