Seems like a very useful library.

Haven't tested it yet but got a few comments:

1. The get and put functions use operator<< and operator>> but I don't see 
anyway of specifying locale. I would prefer some kind of root imbue function 
but since the root isn't special I assume the get/put functions need a locale 
argument.

2. Would it be possible to change the template arguments to container and less 
predicate? Then you can use any string type and easliy get case insensitivity 
with string_algo iless.

3. Why pointers instead of references?

4. I assume paths are constants most of the time. A (w_)char or range overload 
would avoid a string copy (and memory allocation) for each operation.
