Use File::Spec and File::Basename together.
From what I read, I thought they did the same thing, but from your
post it appears that there may be differences. What's the advantage in using
both instead of one or the other? Are they not platform independent on their

File::Spec::splitpath() does not parse the suffixes.
File::Basename::parsefile() does not parse the volume.
What you use depends on your application's needs.
