|  | realpath is a simple implementation of the realpath utility: | 
|  | http://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/manual/html_node/realpath-invocation.html | 
|  | since Mac OS X does not have anything equivalent. | 
|  |  | 
|  | This version takes no options. | 
|  |  | 
|  | This is based on the default GNU/Linux implementation that allows the last | 
|  | component to not exist. This is different than the Debian implementation that | 
|  | requires the last component to exist. Supporting the GNU/Linux implementation | 
|  | makes writing scripts that depend on realpath much easier, and is probably | 
|  | closer to what Apple may actually ship as a realpath implementation in the | 
|  | future. | 
|  |  | 
|  | realpath only builds/runs on Darwin. |
