sack::filesys Namespace

File system abstractions. A few things like get current path may or may not exist on a function. 

 

Primarily this defines functions 'pathchr' and 'pathrchr' which resemble 'strchr' and 'strrchr' but search a string for a path character. A path character is either a / or a \. 

 

Also in this area is file monitoring functions which support methods on windows and linux to get event notifications when directories and, by filtering, files that have changed.
