Upgrading

Upgrading from 0.4 to git head

• The main script's parent directory is no longer automatically added to the module search path. We added a directory property to the module object to easily compensate this with one line of code:

  require.paths.unshift(module.directory);

• The ringo/file module has been removed, and the file module updated to the newest CommonJS Filesystem proposal and renamed to fs.

  For upgrading from the old CommonJS file module to the new fs, adapt the module and function names as needed (for example, mkdir() is now called makeDirectory().

  For upgrading from ringo/file, the fs module exports a Path constructor that is fairly similar to the ringo/file File class. See the changes to the filestore module for an example of upgrading from ringo/file to fs.
