non-OO realpath, basename, dirname?

[David Garamond]

Is there a better way than below? (Note: I don't want to implement
realpath et al myself .

require 'pathname'

def realpath(p)
Pathname.new(p).realpath
end

def basename(p)
Pathname.new(p).basename
end

def dirname(p)
Pathname.new(p).dirname
end

Regards,
dave

[snip]
Pathname.new(p).realpath
Pathname.new(p).basename
Pathname.new(p).dirname

Sorry, that should've been:

Pathname.new(p).realpath.to_s
Pathname.new(p).basename.to_s
Pathname.new(p).dirname.to_s

For basename and dirname:

File.basename(p)
File.dirname(p)

Dunno for realpath

Hi,

Pathname.new(p).basename.to_s
Pathname.new(p).dirname.to_s
File.basename(p)
File.dirname(p)

Pathname.new(p).realpath.to_s

File.expand_path(p), though it doesn't follow links. The #realpath
implementation in pathname.rb does the resolving by itself, so it seems
you have to make your own function :I
