  /**
   * This class provides basic facilities for manipulating files and file paths.
   *
   * <h3>Path-related methods</h3>
   * 
   * Methods exist to retrieve the components of a typical file path. For example
   * <code>/www/hosted/mysite/index.html</code>, can be broken into:
   * <ul>
   * <li><code>/www/hosted/mysite/index</code> -- retrievable through {@link #removeExtension}</li>
   * <li><code>html</code> -- retrievable through {@link #getExtension}</li>
   * </ul>
   *
   * <h3>File-related methods</h3>
   * 
   * <p>There are methods to create a {@link #toFile File from a URL}, copy a
   * {@link #copyFile File to another File},
   * copy a {@link #copyURLToFile URL's contents to a File},
   * as well as methods to {@link #deleteDirectory(File) delete} and {@link #cleanDirectory(File)
   * clean} a directory.
   * </p>
   * <p>Common {@link java.io.File} manipulation routines.</p>
   * <p>
   * Taken from the commons-utils repo.
   * Also code from Alexandria's FileUtils.
   * And from Avalon Excalibur's IO.
   * And from Ant.
