I'd rather submit bug reports and help improving a commonly used library 
than re-inventing the wheel. If the help is not wanted, that's another 
thing. But I consider working together important.


Furthermore, file paths are an essential part of programming even of 
todays operating systems. As are strings, numbers btw.
