+--- File and Directory manipulation
+-- @module lfs
+
+local lfs = {}
+
+---
+-- Returns a table with the file attributes corresponding to filepath (or nil
+-- followed by an error message in case of error). If the second optional
+-- argument is given, then only the value of the named attribute is returned
+-- (this use is equivalent to lfs.attributes(filepath).aname, but the table is
+-- not created and only one attribute is retrieved from the O.S.). The
+-- attributes are described as follows; attribute mode is a string, all the
+-- others are numbers, and the time related attributes use the same time
+-- reference of os.time:
+--
+-- - dev: on Unix systems, this represents the device that the inode resides on.
+-- On Windows systems, represents the drive number of the disk containing
+-- the file
+-- - ino: on Unix systems, this represents the inode number. On Windows systems
+-- this has no meaning
+-- - mode: string representing the associated protection mode (the values could
+-- be file, directory, link, socket, named pipe, char device, block
+-- device or other)
+-- - nlink: number of hard links to the file
+-- - uid: user-id of owner (Unix only, always 0 on Windows)
+-- - gid: group-id of owner (Unix only, always 0 on Windows)
+-- - rdev: on Unix systems, represents the device type, for special file inodes.
+-- On Windows systems represents the same as dev
+-- - access: time of last access
+-- - modification: time of last data modification
+-- - change: time of last file status change
+-- - size: file size, in bytes
+-- - blocks: block allocated for file; (Unix only)
+-- - blksize: optimal file system I/O blocksize; (Unix only)
+-- This function uses stat internally thus if the given filepath is a symbolic
+-- link, it is followed (if it points to another link the chain is followed
+-- recursively) and the information is about the file it refers to. To obtain
+-- information about the link itself, see function lfs.symlinkattributes.
+function lfs.attributes(filepath , aname) end

+-- Changes the current working directory to the given path.
+-- Returns true in case of success or nil plus an error string.
+function lfs.chdir(path) end

+---
+-- Creates a lockfile (called lockfile.lfs) in path if it does not exist and
+-- returns the lock. If the lock already exists checks it it's stale, using the
+-- second parameter (default for the second parameter is INT_MAX, which in
+-- practice means the lock will never be stale. To free the the lock call
+-- lock:free().
+-- In case of any errors it returns nil and the error message. In particular,
+-- if the lock exists and is not stale it returns the "File exists" message.
+function lfs.lock_dir(path, seconds_stale) end

+-- Returns a string with the current working directory or nil plus an error
+-- string.
+function lfs.currentdir() end

+---
+-- Lua iterator over the entries of a given directory. Each time the iterator is
+-- called with dir_obj it returns a directory entry's name as a string, or nil
+-- if there are no more entries. You can also iterate by calling `dir_obj:next()`,
+-- and explicitly close the directory before the iteration finished with
+-- `dir_obj:close()`. Raises an error if path is not a directory.
+function lfs.dir(path) end

+-- Locks a file or a part of it. This function works on open files; the file
+-- handle should be specified as the first argument. The string mode could be
+-- either r (for a read/shared lock) or w (for a write/exclusive lock). The
+-- optional arguments start and length can be used to specify a starting point
+-- and its length; both should be numbers.
+-- Returns true if the operation was successful; in case of error, it returns
+-- nil plus an error string.
+function lfs.lock(filehandle, mode, start, length) end

+-- Creates a new directory. The argument is the name of the new directory.
+-- Returns true if the operation was successful; in case of error, it returns

+-- Sets the writing mode for a file. The mode string can be either binary or
+-- text. Returns the previous mode string for the file. This function is only
+-- available in Windows, so you may want to make sure that lfs.setmode exists
+-- before using it.
+function lfs.setmode(file, mode) end
+
+---
+-- Identical to lfs.attributes except that it obtains information about the link
+-- itself (not the file it refers to). This function is not available in Windows
+-- so you may want to make sure that lfs.symlinkattributes exists before using
+-- it.
+function lfs.symlinkattributes(filepath , aname) end

+---
+-- Set access and modification times of a file. This function is a bind to utime
+-- function. The first argument is the filename, the second argument (atime) is
+-- the access time, and the third argument (mtime) is the modification time.
+-- Both times are provided in seconds (which should be generated with Lua
+-- standard function os.time). If the modification time is omitted, the access
+-- time provided is used; if both times are omitted, the current time is used.
+-- Returns true if the operation was successful; in case of error, it returns
+-- nil plus an error string.
