I have made one, together with Jim Brown. It's main functiions are:
--  s = file_path(name)
--  s = file_name(name)
--  i = exist(name)
--  i = make_dir(dirname)
--  i = del_file(filename)
--  i = del_dir(dirname)
--  x = del_tree(dirname)
--  i = get_attr(name)
--  i = set_attr(name, attr)
--  x = get_file_time(filename)
--  i = set_file_time(filename, filetime)
--  i = copy_file(sourcefile, targetfile)
--  x = copy_tree(sourcedir, targetdir)
--  i = move(oldname, newname)  [= rename()]

It's not ready for release yet, but it's already usable.
If you want, I can send it to you privately.
