FileUtils.cp

Michael P. Soulier

Hey,

It's great to see that FileUtils has Unix friendly methods, so it feels like
working in the shell. However, I'd prefer to just type cp and not
FileUtils.cp. Is there a way to import those methods into Kernel so I don't
have to qualify them all?

Thanks,
Mike

Ah, perfect. I didn't realize that it was a module.

Try

ri FileUtils

It does say it is a module... And anyway, it is a good reflex to look
at what ri is saying when you'd like to know something ;-) !

FileUtils is a module so you can #include or #extend.
