<b>News:</b><br>
<br>
Rio has finally made it to (roughly) where it was planned to be all
along.<br>
File manipulations that work locally should now also work remotely.<br>
<br>
e.g.<br>
<br>
dir := '<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="ftp://squeak:viewpoints@squeak.warwick.st/test/test/test">ftp://squeak:viewpoints@squeak.warwick.st/test/test/test</a>' asRio
mkpath.<br>
file := dir / 'hello.txt' contents: 'hello world'.<br>
<br>
next := file rename nextVersion.<br>
next name. { hello.1.txt }<br>
next fileSize. {11}<br>
<br>
next copyTo: 'local.txt'<br>
<br>
<b>Limitations:</b><br>
<br>
Although you can obtain read or writeStreams directly into the remote
file, it is not random access (yet?) <br>
therefore you cant currently write directly to the write stream of a
remote gzip file (which you can do locally)<br>
<br>
