if (st.isFile ())
std::cout << " file";
if (st.isBlock ())
std::cout << " block";
if (st.isDirectory ())
std::cout << " directory";
if (st.isCharacter ())
std::cout << " character";
if (st.isFifo ())
std::cout << " FIFO";
// List the file mode
std::cout << " 0x"
<< std::hex << std::setw (8) << std::setfill('0')
<< st.mode () << std::endl;
}
catch (const RWInternalErr& e) {
std::cerr << " Exception : " << e.why ();
