I propose new method File#unlink.

File#unlink is same as Fille.unlink like this.

class File
  def unlink
    File.unlink(path)
  end
end

It is more objective.
And will be able to write duck typeing with Tempfile#unlink

- Tempfile.open do |f|
+ Tempfile.create do |f|
  f.unlink # Not raise an error
end

Unix can unlink an opend file, but windows doesnt. usa-san, what do you think about this patch?

Of cource, it's nonsence for me.
