File::PathInfo - oo access to path variables stat data about a file on disk =========================================================================== This provides an object oriented interface to things you want to know about a file, such as extension, absolute path, relative path, size, filename (without extension), etc. It is a sort of swissarmy knife of file info. A lot of times you need to know a file's absolute path, it's absolute location, maybe it's relative location to something else (like DOCUMENT ROOT), then you need to maybe know the relative path and relative location for a file. You need to know if a file is a directory, what it's extension is. You can commonly use regexes to do this. This module provides commonly needed variables. See doc for full description.
