Class Method Details
.binary?(file) ⇒ Boolean
Returns whether or not file
is a binary file. Note that this is not guaranteed to be 100% accurate. It performs a “best guess” based on a simple test of the first File.blksize
characters. – Based on code originally provided by Ryan Davis (which, in turn, is based on Perl’s -B switch).

# File 'lib/ptools.rb', line 34 def self.binary?(file) s = (File.read(file, File.stat(file).blksize) || "").split(//) ((s.size - s.grep(" ".."~").size) / s.size.to_f) > 0.30 end |
.head(filename, num_lines = 10) ⇒ Object
In block form, yields the first num_lines
from filename
. In non-block form, returns an Array of num_lines

.middle(filename, from = 10, to = 20) ⇒ Object
In block form, yields line from
up to line to
. In non-block form returns an Array of lines from from

.nl_convert(filename, newfilename = filename, platform = "dos") ⇒ Object
Converts a text file from one OS platform format to another, ala ‘dos2unix’. Valid values for ‘format’, which are case insensitve, include:
-
MS Windows -> dos, windows, win32, mswin
-
Unix/BSD -> unix, linux, bsd
-
Mac -> mac, macintosh, apple, osx
Note that this method is only valid for an ftype of “file”. Otherwise a TypeError will be raised. If an invalid format value is received, an ArgumentError is raised.

.null ⇒ Object
Returns the null device (aka bitbucket) on your platform. On most Unix-like systems this is ‘/dev/null’, on Windows it’s ‘NUL’, etc. – Based on information from en.wikipedia.org/wiki//dev/null

.tail(filename, num_lines = 10) ⇒ Object
In block form, yields the last num_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. Also note that ‘tail -f’ functionality is not present.

.wc(filename, option = 'all') ⇒ Object
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’.

.whereis(program, path = ENV['PATH']) ⇒ Object
In block form, yields each program
within path
. In non-block form, returns an array of each program
within path
.
On Windows, it looks for executables ending with the suffixes defined in your PATHEXT environment variable, or ‘.exe’, ‘.bat’ and ‘.com’ if that isn’t defined, which you may optionally include in program
.
Returns nil if not found.
