# FS (filesystem) module
This module provides functions to inspect the file system. It is
available starting with version 0.53.0.
## File lookup rules
Non-absolute paths are looked up relative to the directory where the
current `meson.build` file is.
### exists
Takes a single string argument and returns true if an entity with that
name exists on the file system. This can be a file, directory or a
special entry such as a device node.
### is_dir
Takes a single string argument and returns true if a directory with
that name exists on the file system. This method follows symbolic
links.
### is_file
Takes a single string argument and returns true if an file with that
name exists on the file system. This method follows symbolic links.
### is_symlink
Takes a single string argument and returns true if the path pointed to
by the string is a symbolic link.
