OK lets decide first if we're going with a single or separate commands.
There seems to be an even split on that preference,
which I think can be summarised as these two options:

  1. relpath¹; realpath; readlink

  2. realpath² --relative --canon --link

cheers,
Pádraig.

¹ Other names suggested: relname
² Other names suggested: getpath, tao, getpathname

p.s. I'm not sure it's worth worrying about the path/$PATH
ambiguity in this context.
