My library of functions to handle with files.
The core feature is the ability to create a cell variable with the names of all files in a given folder.
It opens a wide spectrum of manipulations of many files on a single movement.
The second core feature is the function to write a string of any size into a file according to the a given enconding, e.g. ISO-8859-1, UTF-8, etc.
Some functions may not work on Mac. I cannot test the compatibility.
Each file has a brief description of itself and some examples of usage.
Some files were used in these papers:
