uni-path

Platform-independent Unix-style path manipulation.

Rationale

Rust's std::path module provides convenient way of path manipulation. It would be nice to use such paths not only with OS file system, but with virtual one (e.g. in-memory fs). Unfortunately, std::path is platform-dependent what means that its behavior is different on different platform.

About

This crate is very similar to std::path because its source code was simply copied from std::path implementation and only the following points were modified:

• Remove all platform-dependent conditions and leave only Unix code.
• Use str and String instead of OsStr and OsString.
• Remove all interactions with OS file system.
