       It's possible to set the path to the proc filesystem.

	    Sys::Statistics::Linux::FileStats->new(
	       files => {
		   # This is the default
		   path     => '/proc',
		   file_nr  => 'sys/fs/file-nr',
		   inode_nr => 'sys/fs/inode-nr',
		   dentries => 'sys/fs/dentry-state',
	       }
	   );

   get()
