in reply to Swiss army knife module for files?

If Path::Tiny and built-in ops don’t do what you want then what you want is probably … not ideal. Always build new stuff though. That’s half the fun.

    There's this one: https://metacpan.org/pod/File::Util

    $PM = "Perl Monk's";
    $MCF = "Most Clueless Friar Abbot Bishop Pontiff Deacon Curate Priest Vicar";
    $nysus = $PM . ' ' . $MCF;

    Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. I'll just do it for the fun and to learn new stuff. If people use find use for it and it helps them be lazy and they can spare the extra few MB of memory and tenth of a second extra load time, that'll be an extra bonus.

    The module would basically do all the built-ins and subsume other useful modules like Path::Tiny but put it all under a common interface.

    $PM = "Perl Monk's";
    $MCF = "Most Clueless Friar Abbot Bishop Pontiff Deacon Curate Priest Vicar";
    $nysus = $PM . ' ' . $MCF;
