+pathlib module which tracks the standard library module, so all the newest
+features of the standard pathlib can be used also on older Python versions.
+
+Pathlib offers a set of classes to handle file system paths. It offers the
+following advantages over using string objects:
+

address@hidden No more cumbersome use of os and os.path functions. Everything
can
+be done easily through operators, attribute accesses, and method calls.
address@hidden Embodies the semantics of different path types. For example,
+comparing Windows paths ignores casing.
address@hidden Well-defined semantics, eliminating any inconsistencies or
+ambiguities (forward vs. backward slashes, etc.).
