[line 83]
Dir is basically a wrapper class around PHP's internal Directory
class which provides a little more functionality. It really only defines an additional method read_all(), which allows you to retrive directory lists sorted by a number of properties, including alphabetically (by name), by date (most recently modified first), and by size (largest on top).
New in 1.2:
find () method will search through directories (recusion is optional) for
files based on patterns, which are parsed by the matches () method.
New in 1.4:
find_in_files() method will search through directories (recursion is
optional) for files whose contents contain a specified string or pattern,
which relies on the File class for the content evaluation.
New in 1.6:
build() method will build a directory structure for you recursively if any
parts of the path do not exist.
rmdir_recursive() method will remove a directory and all of its contents.
New in 1.8:
Added an open() method, so that you can reuse the same Directory object.
Note: All the other methods are identical to PHP's internal Directory class.

Takes a directory path and builds each level if they don't exist.
For example: calling Dir::build('sitellite/mod/newmodule/pix') while in the base directory of your site would change directories to sitellite/mod then call mkdir('newmodule'), chdir('newmodule'), and finally mkdir('pix'), before decending back to the directory you started in. Note: This method does not affect the current working directory. Also note that the $mode must be specified as a 4-digit octal value. See php.net/mkdir for more information on $mode values.
