<div class="module-description">
<p>is a simple file path library for Carp.</p>
<h2>Installation</h2>
<pre><code class="language-clojure">(load &quot;https://veitheller.de/git/carpentry/path@0.0.2&quot;)
</code></pre>
<h3>Usage</h3>
<p>The <code>Path</code> module mostly operates on <code>String</code> arguments. It allows you to
split, join, and merge paths and extensions in a lot of different ways. It also
has some functions to work with the <code>PATH</code> environment variable.</p>
<p>It assumes either Windows or POSIX-style separators.</p>
