Johnson Omotosho

This class can remove files that exist more than once in a folder.

It provides a function that can traverse a given directory recursively to check if it contains the same contents by comparing the SHA1 hash value of the contents of each file that it finds.

The class removes the finds that appear more than once.

It can also remove all files at once using another function.

Prize: One downloadable copy of CodeLobster Professional		 Some applications need to store information in many files that take a lot of disk space.

Sometimes files are saved twice or copied to a different directory, which takes needless space.

This package provides a solution for this problem by finding and removing duplicate files inside a folder.
