#FSnode_local The local implementation FSnode is modelled after PHP their Filesystem Functions and Directory Functions. A multitude of listed functions are available as methods, with the same name and attributes and behaviour.
$data = file_get_contents('index.html');
# equals:
$fsnode = new FSnode_local(); /*or*/ $fsnode = FSnode::load_URI('./'); /*or*/ $fsnode = FSnode('./');
$data = $fsnode->file_get_contents('index.html');
# and more generic:
$data = $fsnode->read('index.html');
# you should use the generics to enforce future code-compatablity when accessing on other filesystems, like: ftpsee the Class Diagram for the complete list of usable methods.
