Hi Luca,
Thanks, I folded in a modified version of your fix and added tests
that replicate the bug.
FilePortParameter did not have any unit tests, so I added
FilePortParameter.tcl which calls the asFile() method.

Dear Ptolemy-hackers,
I am trying to use the FilePortParameter and I had some problem,
When I call a asFile()
http://chess.eecs.berkeley.edu/ptexternal/src/ptII/doc/codeDoc/ptolemy/acto
r/parameters/FilePortParameter.html#asFile()
on an FilePortParameter which has not been used by the user I get
a nullPointerException, while in the doc it says that it should
return null.
My guess is that there is a bug in the FilePortParameter.java and
the following patch fixes my problem.
