Author: | WATANABE, Hirofumi
Documentation: | Zachary Landau

This library can be distributed under the terms of the Ruby license. You can freely distribute/modify this library.

It is included in the Ruby standard library.

## Description

`ftools` adds several (class, not instance) methods to the File class, for copying, moving, deleting, installing, and comparing files, as well as creating a directory path. See the File class for details.

`fileutils` contains all or nearly all the same functionality and more, and is a recommended option over `ftools`.
