The Synchronet file IO interface is actually more flexable and powerful than
any
of the ones you mentioned (they don't do file range locking or share modes
for
example) and tend to be POSIX-centric for the additional features they
support.
If you want serious cross-platform file manipulation, it's hard to beat
Synchron
et's object model. Of course, you're tying youself to Synchonet then,
but I abs
olutely wouldn't say you'll be "better off" doing those parts in a
different JS
engine.
