Like FileUtils.copy_entry, but takes a filter proc that can return false to skip a file.
Note that if the filter rejects a subdirectory then everything within that subdirectory is automatically skipped as well.
Like FileUtils.cp_r, but takes a filter proc that can return false to skip a file:
cp_rx "bigDirectoryTree", "dest", {:noop => true} do |name| /dontCopyThis$/.match(name) end
Note that if the filter rejects a subdirectory then everything within that subdirectory is automatically skipped as well.
In block form, yields the first number of lines of file filename. In non-block form, it returns an array of the first number of lines:
# Returns first 10 lines of 'myfile' FileUtils.head("myfile", 10)
In block form, yields lines from-to. In non-block form, returns an array of lines from-to:
# Returns lines 8-12 of 'myfile' FileUtils.body("myfile",8,12)

In block form, yields the last number of lines of file filename. In non-block form, it returns the lines as an array.
Note that this method slurps the entire file, so I don‘t recommend it for very large files. If you want an advanced form of tail, I suggest using file-tail, by Florian Frank (available on the RAA):
# Returns last 3 lines of 'myfile' FileUtils.tail("myfile",3)
And no tail -f.
With no arguments, returns a four element array consisting of the number of bytes, characters, words and lines in filename, respectively.
Valid options are bytes, characters (or just ‘chars’), words and lines:
# Return the number of words in 'myfile' FileUtils.wc("myfile",'words')

In block form, yields each ((program)) within ((path)). In non-block form, returns an array of each ((program)) within ((path)). Returns (({nil})) if not found.
On the MS Windows platform, it looks for executables ending with .exe, .bat and .com, which you may optionally include in the program name:
FileUtils.whereis("ruby") #=> ['/usr/local/bin/ruby','/opt/bin/ruby']

Looks for the first occurrence of program within path.
