[Cuis] Wrapper for file access in different Smalltalk dialects

[H. Hirzel]

Hello Masashi-san

I'd like to come back to your FileMan package

https://github.com/mumez/Cuis-Smalltalk-FileMan

and ask a question.

Is this package a port from somewhere or did you write it from scratch?

Some background information is appreciated.

There is no description

Thank you in advance

Hannes Hirzel
