Why like in Python? You mean like in Haskell.
The standard and popular "filepath" library in
Haskell does all that very nicely.

The "path" library you are looking at is a newer library
that wraps "filepath" and provides more type safety.
It looks very nice. I hope the issue with multiplatform
paths will soon be fixed, and then perhaps the path
library will become more widely used. In the meantime,
I suggest you use the "filepath" library.
