+# Objects of class Dir are directory streams representing
+# directories in the underlying file system. They provide a variety
+# of ways to list directories and their contents. See also File.
+#
+# The directory used in these examples contains the two regular files
+# (<code>config.h</code> and <code>main.rb</code>), the parent
+# directory (<code>..</code>), and the directory itself
+# (<code>.</code>).
+#
+# == What's Here
+#
+# First, what's elsewhere. \Class \Dir:
+#
+# - Inherits from {class Object}[Object.html#class-Object-label-What-27s+Here].
+# - Includes {module Enumerable}[Enumerable.html#module-Enumerable-label-What-27s+Here],
+# which provides dozens of additional methods.
+#
+# Here, class \Dir provides methods that are useful for:
+#
+# - {Reading}[#class-Dir-label-Reading]
+# - {Setting}[#class-Dir-label-Setting]
+# - {Querying}[#class-Dir-label-Querying]
+# - {Iterating}[#class-Dir-label-Iterating]
+# - {Other}[#class-Dir-label-Other]
+#
+# === Reading
+#
+# - #close:: Closes the directory stream for +self+.
+# - #pos=:: Sets the position in the directory stream for +self+.
+# - #read:: Reads and returns the next entry in the directory stream for +self+.
+# - #rewind:: Sets the position in the directory stream for +self+ to the first entry.
+# - #seek:: Sets the position in the directory stream for +self+
+# the entry at the given offset.
+#
+# === Setting
+#
+# - ::chdir:: Changes the working directory of the current process
+# to the given directory.
+# - ::chroot:: Changes the file-system root for the current process
+# to the given directory.
+#
+# === Querying
+#
+# - ::[]:: Same as ::glob without the ability to pass flags.
+# - ::children:: Returns an array of names of the children
+# (both files and directories) of the given directory,
+# but not including <tt>.</tt> or <tt>..</tt>.
+# - ::empty?:: Returns whether the given path is an empty directory.
+# - ::entries:: Returns an array of names of the children
+# (both files and directories) of the given directory,
+# including <tt>.</tt> and <tt>..</tt>.
+# - ::exist?:: Returns whether the given path is a directory.
+# - ::getwd (aliased as #pwd):: Returns the path to the current working directory.
+# - ::glob:: Returns an array of file paths matching the given pattern and flags.
+# - ::home:: Returns the home directory path for a given user or the current user.
+# - #children:: Returns an array of names of the children
+# (both files and directories) of +self+,
+# but not including <tt>.</tt> or <tt>..</tt>.
+# - #fileno:: Returns the integer file descriptor for +self+.
+# - #path (aliased as #to_path):: Returns the path used to create +self+.
+# - #tell (aliased as #pos):: Returns the integer position
+# in the directory stream for +self+.
+#
+# === Iterating
+#
+# - ::each_child:: Calls the given block with each entry in the given directory,
+# but not including <tt>.</tt> or <tt>..</tt>.
+# - ::foreach:: Calls the given block with each entryin the given directory,
+# including <tt>.</tt> and <tt>..</tt>.
+# - #each:: Calls the given block with each entry in +self+,
+# including <tt>.</tt> and <tt>..</tt>.
+# - #each_child:: Calls the given block with each entry in +self+,
+# but not including <tt>.</tt> or <tt>..</tt>.
+#
+# === Other
+#
+# - ::mkdir:: Creates a directory at the given path, with optional permissions.
+# - ::new:: Returns a new \Dir for the given path, with optional encoding.
+# - ::open:: Same as ::new, but if a block is given, yields the \Dir to the block,
+# closing it upon block exit.
+# - ::unlink (aliased as ::delete and ::rmdir):: Removes the given directory.
+# - #inspect:: Returns a string description of +self+.

+ # binary ascending order, unless +false+ is given as the optional +sort+
+ # keyword argument. The order of an Array of pattern strings and braces

+ # Note that the pattern is not a regexp, it's closer to a shell glob.
+ # See File::fnmatch for the meaning of the +flags+ parameter.
+ # Case sensitivity depends on your system (+File::FNM_CASEFOLD+ is ignored).
+ #
+ # <code>*</code>::
+ # Matches any file. Can be restricted by other values in the glob.
+ # Equivalent to <code>/.*/mx</code> in regexp.
+ #
+ # <code>*</code>:: Matches all files
+ # <code>c*</code>:: Matches all files beginning with <code>c</code>
+ # <code>*c</code>:: Matches all files ending with <code>c</code>
+ # <code>\*c\*</code>:: Match all files that have <code>c</code> in them
+ # (including at the beginning or end).
+ #
+ # Note, this will not match Unix-like hidden files (dotfiles). In order
+ # to include those in the match results, you must use the
+ # File::FNM_DOTMATCH flag or something like <code>"{*,.*}"</code>.
+ #
+ # <code>**</code>::
+ # Matches directories recursively if followed by <code>/</code>. If
+ # this path segment contains any other characters, it is the same as the
+ # usual <code>*</code>.
+ #
+ # <code>?</code>::
+ # Matches any one character. Equivalent to <code>/.{1}/</code> in regexp.
+ #
+ # <code>[set]</code>::
+ # Matches any one character in +set+. Behaves exactly like character sets
+ # in Regexp, including set negation (<code>[^a-z]</code>).
+ #
+ # <code>{p,q}</code>::
+ # Matches either literal <code>p</code> or literal <code>q</code>.
+ # Equivalent to pattern alternation in regexp.
+ #
+ # Matching literals may be more than one character in length. More than
+ # two literals may be specified.
+ #
+ # <code>\\</code>::
+ # Escapes the next metacharacter.
+ #
+ # Note that this means you cannot use backslash on windows as part of a
+ # glob, i.e. <code>Dir["c:\\foo*"]</code> will not work, use
+ # <code>Dir["c:/foo*"]</code> instead.
+ #
+ # Examples:
+ #
+ # Dir["config.?"] #=> ["config.h"]
+ # Dir.glob("config.?") #=> ["config.h"]
+ # Dir.glob("*.[a-z][a-z]") #=> ["main.rb"]

+ # Dir.glob("*") #=> ["config.h", "main.rb"]
+ # Dir.glob("*", File::FNM_DOTMATCH) #=> [".", "config.h", "main.rb"]
+ # Dir.glob(["*.rb", "*.h"]) #=> ["main.rb", "config.h"]
+ #
+ # Dir.glob("**/*.rb") #=> ["main.rb",
+ # # "lib/song.rb",
+ # # "lib/song/karaoke.rb"]
+ #
+ # Dir.glob("**/*.rb", base: "lib") #=> ["song.rb",
+ # # "song/karaoke.rb"]
+ #
+ # Dir.glob("**/lib") #=> ["lib"]
+ #
+ # Dir.glob("**/lib/**/*.rb") #=> ["lib/song.rb",

+ #
+ # Returns true if +path+ matches against +pattern+. The pattern is not a

+ # globbing. It may contain the following metacharacters:
+ #
+ # <code>*</code>::
+ # Matches any file. Can be restricted by other values in the glob.
+ # Equivalent to <code>/.*/x</code> in regexp.
+ #
+ # <code>*</code>:: Matches all regular files
+ # <code>c*</code>:: Matches all files beginning with <code>c</code>
+ # <code>*c</code>:: Matches all files ending with <code>c</code>
+ # <code>\*c*</code>:: Matches all files that have <code>c</code> in them
+ # (including at the beginning or end).
+ #
+ # To match hidden files (that start with a <code>.</code>) set the
+ # File::FNM_DOTMATCH flag.
+ #
+ # <code>**</code>::
+ # Matches directories recursively or files expansively.
+ #
+ # <code>?</code>::
+ # Matches any one character. Equivalent to <code>/.{1}/</code> in regexp.
+ #
+ # <code>[set]</code>::
+ # Matches any one character in +set+. Behaves exactly like character sets
+ # in Regexp, including set negation (<code>[^a-z]</code>).
+ #
+ # <code>\\</code>::
+ # Escapes the next metacharacter.
+ #
+ # <code>{a,b}</code>::
+ # Matches pattern a and pattern b if File::FNM_EXTGLOB flag is enabled.
+ # Behaves like a Regexp union (<code>(?:a|b)</code>).
+ #
+ # +flags+ is a bitwise OR of the <code>FNM_XXX</code> constants. The same
