public static void main(String[] args) {
final String FPATH = "/home/mem/index.html";
Filename myHomePage = new Filename(FPATH, '/', '.');
System.out.println("Extension = " + myHomePage.extension());
System.out.println("Filename = " + myHomePage.filename());
System.out.println("Path = " + myHomePage.path());
