better chaining for types

smart copy, make sure the destination parent directories exist and preserve the src file modification time

provide a monadic expression for the existence of a file

Smart listing files or directories or cross platform root capabilities

ensures a directory can be made successfully

ensures current file parent directories exist by checking or making them, returns Success[File] if successful This can be used as a sort of monadic wrapper around succesful parents In most cases this removes the need for an explicit mkdir, assuming you should only need a directory if you have a file Note: this assumes a file inside the directory is specified.

a setter way to set the last modified time, i.e a copy should sometimes do this

optionally wrap an object

if the file doesn't exist download it

if a file exists use it as an input else use the input.

switch to a file or directory that exists else keep the last filename

a preApply f => f(a)

clean the file name to be a safe (without spaces and problematic characters)

side effect filter

default to string should be a cross platform representation of path separators Note: the system path form is still returned by _.path

walk(maxDepth=0) is equivalent to list

walk is equivalent to walk(maxDepth=0,=>false,0) is equivalent to list

debounce checks fmod and create differences, delay:adds a slight delay before f-execution

alias for option if
