Don't think so. What about things like this

-(void)copyFile:(NSString*)a to:(NSString*)b {
NSData *d=[d dataWithContentsOfFile:a];
[d writeToFile:b atomically:NO];
}

Agreed that it is and always was suboptimal, but it is and always was a perfectly valid OpenStep / Cocoa code.

However, I'm wondering, do all file systems support extensions with more
than 3 characters or folder with extensions in their name?

Well, the only ones I bumped into which don't were those of CP/M, ATARI TOS, MeSsy DOS, and Psion Epoc/16 (SIBO).
