- The `FNAME` Command:
  - The `FNAME` command is used to form or parse file names.
  - The component parts `AREA=`, `NAME=`, `EXT=`, and `OPT=` are put together to form a full file name. For example:

        nM> fname label=fullname area=dat name=airports ext=csv opt=sys
        nM> res fullname
        41S: FULLNAME        = /home/burdell/nxm230/nxm/sys/dat/airports.csv

  - It is also possible to go in reverse and extract `AREA=` (in this case area gets the directory path), `NAME=`, `EXT=`, and `OPT=` from a full file name. For example:

        nM> fname label=fullname area=mypath name=myname ext=myext opt=myopt /parse
        nM> res my*
         3S: MYEXT           = csv
         8S: MYNAME          = airports
        41S: MYPATH          = /home/burdell/nxm230/nxm/sys/dat/

  - Why use this? -- To improve portability between Linux and Windows by not including path delimiters!
  - The `FILE NAME` function may also be used to form platform-agnostic file names.

X-Midas Users Take Note:
Like most commands in NeXtMidas, the `FNAME` command can be used with both Midas files and non-Midas files alike.
