There is 'info', 'dir', 'cd', 'chdir', 'dirname', 'basename' and
probably more. Also, you can call any C function like

   (%@ "link" 'I Old New)
   (%@ "unlink" 'I File)
   (%@ "rename" 'I Src Dst)

and so on.

If you'd like to look at some practical examples, there is

   'docs' in @lib/debug.l
   'snapshot' in @lib/too.l

And of course @lib/vip.l which naturally does a lot of file operations.
