Yes, this one simple way to do it. Another way is to use only library
functions to manipulate filenames. There exists such kind of functions
in Java or in Elisp, there must be the counterparts in Perl (I am not
familiar with Perl, but I cannot imagine that this does not exist).
Personally I would prefer to use library functions, that sounds more
portable/futureproof.
