   FIXTILDE - Removes ~ from filenames and replaces with user home directory

   NEWNAME = FIXTILDE(FILENAME)

   Removes '~' symbol for a user's home directory in unix and replaces it
   with the actual path.

   e.g.  FIXTILDE('~/myfile') returns '/home/username/myfile'

   If the tilde is not the leading character then no changes are made.
