Instance Method Details

#/(string) ⇒ Object

Syntactic sugar for using File.join to concatenate the argument to the receiver.

require "lib" / "utilities" / "string"

The idea is not original, but we can’t remember where we first saw it.

Waves::Utilities::Symbol defines the same method, allowing for :files / ‘afilename.txt’
