   1 # fs plus [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/atom/fs-plus.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/atom/fs-plus)
   2
   3 Yet another filesystem helper based on node's [fs](http://nodejs.org/api/fs.html)
   4 module.  This library exports everything from node's fs module but with some
   5 extra helpers.

   9 ```sh
  10 npm install fs-plus
  11 ```
