DESCRIPTION
       The module is used to replace common UNIX commands.  In all cases the
       functions work from @ARGV rather than taking arguments.  This makes
       them easier to deal with in Makefiles.  Call them like this:
         perl -MExtUtils::Command -e some_command some files to work on
       and NOT like this:
         perl -MExtUtils::Command -e 'some_command qw(some files to work on)'
       For that use Shell::Command.
       Filenames with * and ? will be glob expanded.
   FUNCTIONS
       cat
               cat file ...
           Concatenates all files mentioned on command line to STDOUT.
       eqtime
               eqtime source destination
           Sets modified time of destination to that of source.
       rm_rf
               rm_rf files or directories ...
           Removes files and directories - recursively (even if readonly)
       rm_f
               rm_f file ...
           Removes files (even if readonly)
       touch
               touch file ...
           Makes files exist, with current timestamp
       mv
               mv source_file destination_file
               mv source_file source_file destination_dir
           Moves source to destination.  Multiple sources are allowed if
           destination is an existing directory.
           Returns true if all moves succeeded, false otherwise.
       cp
               cp source_file destination_file
               cp source_file source_file destination_dir
           Copies sources to the destination.  Multiple sources are allowed if
           destination is an existing directory.
           Returns true if all copies succeeded, false otherwise.
       chmod
               chmod mode files ...
           Sets UNIX like permissions 'mode' on all the files.  e.g. 0666
       mkpath
               mkpath directory ...
           Creates directories, including any parent directories.
       test_f
               test_f file
           Tests if a file exists.  Exits with 0 if it does, 1 if it does not
           (ie.  shell's idea of true and false).
       test_d
               test_d directory
           Tests if a directory exists.  Exits with 0 if it does, 1 if it does
           not (ie. shell's idea of true and false).
       dos2unix
               dos2unix files or dirs ...
           Converts DOS and OS/2 linefeeds to Unix style recursively.
SEE ALSO
       Shell::Command which is these same functions but take arguments
       normally.
