FcStrCopyFilename - create a complete path from a filename

#include <fontconfig/fontconfig.h>

FcChar8 * FcStrCopyFilename (const FcChar8 s);*

FcStrCopyFilename constructs an absolute pathname from s. It converts any leading ’' characters in to the value of the HOME environment variable, and any relative paths are converted to absolute paths using the current working directory. Sequences of '/' characters are converted to a single '/', and names containing the current directory '.' or parent directory '..' are correctly reconstructed. Returns NULL if '’ is the leading character and HOME is unset or disabled (see FcConfigEnableHome).
