A function inspired by perls join function. It joins a list of
lists of elements by seperating them with a seperator element.

-> [a]

A function inspired by the perl function split. A list is splitted
on a seperator element in smaller non-empty lists.
The seperator element is dropped from the resulting list.

A function inspired by a perl function from the standard perl-module

directory and gives the suffix that matched from the list of
suffixes. If a suffix matched it is removed from the basename.
