title: Node.js fs module and windows paths
body: <p>Does the Node.js fs module implicitly convert Windows folder path separators from <code>'\\'</code> to <code>'/'</code>?</p>
  
  <p>For example, if I use this call on Windows:</p>
  
  <pre><code>fs.readdirSync(dir).forEach(function(file) {
  
  });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>file argument has <code>'/'</code> path separators, not <code>'\\'</code>, why is that?</p>
