module Hashery

  # A PathHash is a hash whose values can be accessed in the normal manner,
  # or with keys that are slash (`/`) separated strings. To get the whole hash
  # as a single flattened level, call `#flat`. All keys are converted to strings.
  # All end-of-the-chain values are kept in whatever value they are.
  #
  #   s = PathHash['a' => 'b', 'c' => {'d' => :e}]
  #   s['a'] #=> 'b'
  #   s['c'] #=> {slashed: 'd'=>:e}
  #   s['c']['d'] #=> :e
  #   s['c/d'] #=> :e
  #
  # PathHash is derived from the SlashedHash class in the HashMagic project
