What is perl-Path-Tiny

This module attempts to provide a small, fast utility for working with file paths. It is friendlier to use than File functions from several other core file handling modules. It doesn’t attempt to be as full-featured as IO it try to work for anything except Unix-like and Win32 platforms. Even then, it might break if you try something particularly obscure or tortuous. All paths are forced to have Unix-style forward slashes. Stringifying the object gives you back the path (after some clean up). File input/output methods flock handles before reading or writing, as appropriate. The *_utf8 methods (slurp_utf8, lines_utf8, etc.) operate in raw mode without CRLF translation.
