Before I roll my own--is there a class method that I can use that will allow me to separate a path from a filename? For example when I use NSOpenPanel and use the filename method -- I can a fully qualified path to the file including the filename. I want to pull the path away. Do I just do some nice string manipulation to do what I want or is there a better considered way?

For the archives: If you want to *display* the path or filename instead of just use it, use displayNameAtPath: and componentsToDisplayForPath:. They're in NSFileManager. Otherwise you won't get the correct localized file names on foreign systems, and the colons and slashes will be swapped compared to how the Finder displays them, and the disk name will be missing.
