Changes the file's permission bits. The permission can be specified as an octal number or a string.

    var file = File("script.sh")
    file.chmod(0755)                # rwxr-xr-x
    file.chmod("644")               # rw-r--r--

Returns C<true> on success, C<false> otherwise.

    file.chown(uid, gid)

Changes the owner and group of the file. Both C<uid> (user ID) and C<gid> (group ID) must be provided as numeric values.

    var file = File("data.txt")
    file.chown(1000, 1000)          # Change owner and group

Returns C<true> on success, C<false> otherwise. May require elevated privileges.

=head2 compare

    file.compare(other_file)

Compares the contents of two files byte-by-byte. Returns C<0> if files are identical, C<-1> if the first file is less than the second, C<1> if greater, or C<nil> on error.
