Ideally, code should not even be aware of what the path separator is.
Always use the system provided methods to concatenate and split paths
(NSURL, CFURL, NSString, FSRefs), then your code couldn't care less if
10.7 should introduce HFS++Extreme with 'e' as path separator.
Ideally, that's true. And a key element of that is to make sure
you're consistent about which API you're using. But you also may need
to do some scrubbing if, for example, there's any chance of the user
entering filename information directly.
