type FilePath = String
rio RIO.FilePath RIO.Prelude.Types
File and directory names are values of type String, whose precise meaning is operating system dependent. Files can be opened, yielding a handle which can then be used to operate on the contents of that file.
equalFilePath :: FilePath -> FilePath -> Bool
rio RIO.FilePath
Equality of two FilePaths. If you call System.Directory.canonicalizePath first this has a much better chance of working. Note that this doesn't follow symlinks or DOSNAM~1s. 
x == y ==> equalFilePath x y
normalise x == normalise y ==> equalFilePath x y
equalFilePath "foo" "foo/"
not (equalFilePath "foo" "/foo")
Posix:   not (equalFilePath "foo" "FOO")
Windows: equalFilePath "foo" "FOO"
Windows: not (equalFilePath "C:" "C:/")
