I was reading through some forum threads and stumbled on a pair of command-line tools that I thought would be handy for something that I'm working on, and I thought I kept it in some notes, but for the life of me I can't find it or remember the commands.
They're quite simple. One trims the filename off of a full path, and the other trims the path off of the filename. So, given
/path/to/file/on/the/drive.txt
one returns "drive.txt"
other returns "/path/to/file/on/the"
Anyone know offhand what these are?
Thanks.
Dave.
