Supports the standard [ serialization options ]

If [filename] is ommitted the current directory is used
if [base] is provided then it is added as a new component to the filename prior to executing the options




Description

Prints a component of a filename or path.

Example:
xfile -a foo.bar

c:/work/dei/xmlsh/trunk/foo.bar
