Hello,
I can see from a FileSystem example how to check for the existence of a
directory.  What I would like to be able to do is to check for the  
existence of
a file but I couldn't figure out how to do it using exists().
Simply:

path filepath;// this is a path to a file
if (exists(filepath) && !is_directory(filepath))
{
... the file is there
}
else
{
...the file is not in there, or it is a directory.
}

Greetings,
Luca
