Subject: Regular expression ;-)
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 "$1\n" ; # result: "123.txt";
Any suggestions for /(XX)YY/ ? Thanks.
Maybe
/^(.*)\..*$/;
Tested in Komodo Regexp calculator.
