Subject: [ANN] win32-dir 0.1.0

Hi all,

The Win32 Utils Team is happy to announce the first release of
win32-dir.

What is it?
===========
A series of extra constants for the Dir class that define special
folders on Win32 systems.  That's it.

Like what?
==========
For example, if you want the "Windows" directory on your system, you
could do this:

require "win32/dir"
p Dir::WINDOWS

That could return C:\WINDOWS, C:\WINNT, or whatever you set it to when
you installed Windows.  This is much easier than doing a bunch of
File.exists? checks.

Where is it?
============
It's available on the RAA, or on the Win32 Utils project page at
http://www.rubyforge.org/projects/win32utils.

Enjoy!

The Win32 Utils Team
