pathlist: Package Supporting the Work with File Paths

This package implements a S4 class pathlist that internally stores a vector of file paths (as, e.g. received with dir()) as a matrix of path segments. I found out that this is the most compact form to store the paths. The main feature of the class is the dollar function that allows to filter paths for the value of their top-level folder. Using the dollar operator subsequently you can easily narrow down the list of paths. The class implements functions length(), head(), tail(), summary(), and show().
