def make_abspath(*path_elements):
    """
    Return a string with absolute path to a specified file. Accepts zero or more
    strings, which are joined according to system-specific syntax. Relative
    paths are intepreted as having root at current working directory (cwd).
    Links and symbols such as '~', '..' or '/' are expanded and interpreted.
    As such, function calls with no argument and '~' as argument will yield
    string-paths to current working directory and home directory, respectively.

    :Example:

    >>> make_abspath()
    PosixPath('/home/username/hikari/hikari/utility')
    >>> make_abspath('~')
    PosixPath('/home/username')
    >>> make_abspath('~', 'cocoa/is', 'not/../hot.txt')
    PosixPath('/home/username/cocoa/is/hot.txt')

    Running the script on Windows machine will yield an appropriate Windows
    Path. In particular, 'cocoa/is' will be intepreted as single directory.

    :param path_elements: path element(s) to join and intepret, defaults to cwd.
    :type path_elements: str
    :return: string containing resolved absolute path to the specified location
