Easier path construction using overloaded /


Especially when writing rake tasks where a lot of path construction code is written the following overloading of the / operator makes the code more readable.


class String
  def /(other)
    File.join(self,other)
  end
end

# and you can write
#   path = all/along/the/watch/tower
# instead of 
#   path = "#{all}/#{along}/#{the}/#{watch}/#{tower}"
