Expressive file and directory manipulation for Haskell.

FileManip: expressive file manipulation

This package provides functions and combinators for searching, matching, and manipulating files.

It provides four modules.

System.FilePath.Find lets you search a filesystem hierarchy efficiently:

find always (extension ==? ".pl") >>= mapM_ remove

System.FilePath.GlobPattern lets you perform glob-style pattern matching, without going through a regexp engine:

"foo.c" ~~ "*.c" ==> True

System.FilePath.Glob lets you do simple glob-style file name searches:

namesMatching "/.c" ==> ["foo/bar.c"]

System.FilePath.Manip lets you rename files procedurally, edit files in place, or save old copies as backups:

modifyWithBackup (<.> "bak") (unlines . map (takeWhile (/= ',')) . lines) "myPoorFile.csv"
