 == Overview
 
-Rio is a Ruby I/O convenience class wrapping much of the functionality
-of IO, File and Dir. Rio also uses FileUtils, Tempfile, StringIO,
-OpenURI, Net::FTP, Zlib, and CSV to provide similar functionality
-using a simple consistent interface. In addition to forwarding the
-interfaces provided by IO, File, and Dir to an appropriate object, Rio
-provides a "grande" interface that allows many common application
-level I/O and file-system tasks to be expressed succinctly.
