Path processing in the Formula widget

[borondics]

What's your use case?
This would be most useful for Spectroscopy and similar workflows.

Files always come with a path that carry information about organization. In Formula it is possible to do plenty of math but not much of text processing (except for the obvious string operations). However, it would be awesome to be able to extract the path and the filename using the os python module for example.

What's your proposed solution?

Make path handling functions available in Formula.

Are there any alternative solutions?

One can use string functions but that can become a bit awkward.
