# XXX this isn't used anywhere, and worse, it has the same name as a method

- file_util.py: operations on single files
- dir_util.py: operations on whole directories or directory trees
- dep_util.py: simple timestamp-based dependency analysis
- archive_util.py: creation of archive (tar, zip, ...) files
The functions left in util.py are miscellany that don't fit in any of the
new files.
