Read Write Files

A Path are both Input and Output objects as well as Seekable so all read/write options available through those are also possible directly on Path objects

Basic Read Write

Basic read and write options. Not all options are demonstrated so review the {/core} operations for Input,Output,Seekable etc....

    import scalax.file.Path
    implicit val codec = scalax.io.Codec.UTF8

    // Take the first set of non-empty lines, keeping the terminator for each line
    val nonEmptySpan = Path("file").lines(includeTerminator = true).
      dropWhile{_.isEmpty}.
      takeWhile{_.nonEmpty}

    // Write result from previous read to a new file
    Path("nonEmpty").writeStrings(nonEmptySpan)
