/**
 * General file name and file path manipulation utilities. The methods in this class
 * operate on strings that represent relative or absolute paths. Nothing in this class
 * ever accesses the file system, or depends on whether a path points to a file that exists.
 * <p>
 * When dealing with file names, you can hit problems when moving from a Windows
 * based development machine to a Unix based production machine.
 * This class aims to help avoid those problems.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * <strong>NOTE</strong>: You may be able to avoid using this class entirely simply by
 * using JDK {@link File File} objects and the two argument constructor
 * {@link File#File(java.io.File, String) File(File,String)}.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Most methods in this class are designed to work the same on both Unix and Windows.
 * Those that don't include 'System', 'Unix', or 'Windows' in their name.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Most methods recognize both separators (forward and backslashes), and both
 * sets of prefixes. See the Javadoc of each method for details.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * This class defines six components within a path (sometimes called a file name or a full file name).
 * Given an absolute Windows path such as C:\dev\project\file.txt they are:
 * </p>
 * <ul>
 * <li>the full file name, or just file name - C:\dev\project\file.txt</li>
 * <li>the prefix - C:\</li>
 * <li>the path - dev\project\</li>
 * <li>the full path - C:\dev\project\</li>
 * <li>the name - file.txt</li>
 * <li>the base name - file</li>
 * <li>the extension - txt</li>
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * Given an absolute Unix path such as /dev/project/file.txt they are:
 * </p>
 * <ul>
 * <li>the full file name, or just file name - /dev/project/file.txt</li>
 * <li>the prefix - /</li>
 * <li>the path - dev/project</li>
 * <li>the full path - /dev/project</li>
 * <li>the name - file.txt</li>
 * <li>the base name - file</li>
 * <li>the extension - txt</li>
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * Given a relative Windows path such as dev\project\file.txt they are:
 * </p>
 * <ul>
 * <li>the full file name, or just file name - dev\project\file.txt</li>
 * <li>the prefix - null</li>
 * <li>the path - dev\project\</li>
 * <li>the full path - dev\project\</li>
 * <li>the name - file.txt</li>
 * <li>the base name - file</li>
 * <li>the extension - txt</li>
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * Given an absolute Unix path such as /dev/project/file.txt they are:
 * </p>
 * <ul>
 * <li>the full path, full file name, or just file name - /dev/project/file.txt</li>
 * <li>the prefix - /</li>
 * <li>the path - dev/project</li>
 * <li>the full path - /dev/project</li>
 * <li>the name - file.txt</li>
 * <li>the base name - file</li>
 * <li>the extension - txt</li>
 * </ul>
 *
 *
 * <p>
 * This class works best if directory names end with a separator.
 * If you omit the last separator, it is impossible to determine if the last component
 * corresponds to a file or a directory. This class treats final components
 * that do not end with a separator as files, not directories.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * This class only supports Unix and Windows style names.
 * Prefixes are matched as follows:
 * </p>
 * <pre>
 * Windows:
 * a\b\c.txt           --&gt; ""          --&gt; relative
 * \a\b\c.txt          --&gt; "\"         --&gt; current drive absolute
 * C:a\b\c.txt         --&gt; "C:"        --&gt; drive relative
 * C:\a\b\c.txt        --&gt; "C:\"       --&gt; absolute
 * \\server\a\b\c.txt  --&gt; "\\server\" --&gt; UNC
 *
 * Unix:
 * a/b/c.txt           --&gt; ""          --&gt; relative
 * /a/b/c.txt          --&gt; "/"         --&gt; absolute
 * ~/a/b/c.txt         --&gt; "~/"        --&gt; current user
 * ~                   --&gt; "~/"        --&gt; current user (slash added)
 * ~user/a/b/c.txt     --&gt; "~user/"    --&gt; named user
 * ~user               --&gt; "~user/"    --&gt; named user (slash added)
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * Both prefix styles are matched, irrespective of the machine that you are
 * currently running on.
 * </p>
