(with-open [writer (jio/writer p)]
  (.write writer "Hello!\n"))

(with-open [writer (jio/writer p :append true)]
  (.write writer "How's it goin?\n"))

(with-open [reader (jio/reader p)]
  (println (slurp reader)))
Hello!
How's it goin?

(println (type (jio/as-file p)))
java.io.File

A convenience function is also provided to create paths

(me.moocar.java.io/path "/tmp/foo")
#<UnixPath /tmp/foo>
(me.moocar.java.io/path "/tmp" "foo" "bar")
#<UnixPath /tmp/foo/bar>
