Procs

proc hasNext(it: PathIter; x: string): bool {...}{.raises: [], tags: [].}

Source Edit

proc next(it: var PathIter; x: string): (int, int) {...}{.raises: [], tags: [].}

Source Edit

proc addNormalizePath(x: string; result: var string; state: var int;
                      dirSep = DirSep) {...}{.raises: [], tags: [].}

Low level proc. Undocumented. Source Edit

proc normalizePath(path: string; dirSep = DirSep): string {...}{.raises: [], tags: [].}

Example:

when defined(posix):
  doAssert normalizePath("./foo//bar/../baz") == "foo/baz"

• Turns multiple slashes into single slashes.
• Resolves '/foo/../bar' to '/bar'.
• Removes './' from the path, but "foo/.." becomes ".".
