easy_paths 0.1.1

Convenience library for rapidly processing string-type paths.
Documentation
# easy_paths

Convenience library for talented devs on tight schedules.

This library exists to streamline the data-type juggling normally associated with disk pathing by accepting generic
strings ( str / String ) and returning String types.

## Warnings

This library is tested on mac and linux.

This is completely *untested* on Windows.

## Usage examples

All arguments can be of type 'str' or 'String'.
