pathutils

Path handling utilities for Nim. Strictly typed code in order to avoid the never ending time sink in getting path handling right.

Types

AbsoluteFile = distinct string
  Source Edit
AbsoluteDir = distinct string
  Source Edit
RelativeFile = distinct string
  Source Edit
RelativeDir = distinct string
  Source Edit
AnyPath = AbsoluteFile | AbsoluteDir | RelativeFile | RelativeDir
  Source Edit
