Hello,

a simple regular _expression_ is needed to eliminate the file extension:

$_="123";
/(XX)YY/;
print "$1\n" ; # result: "123";

$_="123.txt";
/(XX)YY/;
print "$1\n" ; # result: "123"

$_="123.txt.txt";
/(XX)YY/;
print "$1\n" ; # result: "123.txt";

Any suggestions for /(XX)YY/ ? Thanks.

Kind regards
Walter Laub
