Fileutils - OCaml API to manipulate real files (POSIX like) and filenames

Features of the project:

• pure OCaml

• file functions inspired from GNU fileutils (aiming to be POSIX compatible)

  • cp: copy files and directories

  • mv: rename files and directories

  • rm: remove files and directories

  • test: check file types and compare values

  • find: find files that match certain criteria

  • mkdir: create directory and its parents

  • ls: list content of a directory

  • touch: change file timestamps

  • which: locate a command

  • readlink: resolve symlink

  • du: compute disk usage

  • stat: abstract of Unix.stat

  • cmp: compare files

  • chmod: change permissions of a file

• filename functions support Win32/Unix/MacOS and Cygwin filenames:

  • Compare: is_subdir, is_updir, compare

  • Transform: make_absolute, make_relative, reduce

  • Extension: chop_extension, check_extension
