% 
% Question about capturing a file name with 
% spaces using regular expressions.

Is that the problem or is it simply getting rid of the dir path at the
front?


% 
...
% [snip example]
% 
% /samba/hmp/iso/06/UNASSIGNED-06 - DUMMY-06.iso
% 
% [/snip example]
% 
% My goal is to print "UNASSIGNED-06 - DUMMY-06.iso"  (and
% then later on cut out the .iso part).  If I can do that,
% then I think I can do the rest.

That ought to be pretty easy.


% 
% Suggestions?

How about something like

  use File::Basename;
  ...
  my ($name,$path,$suffix) = fileparse("$names","\.iso");
  ...

to parse out the pieces?  If that's too complex, then basename() ought to
do it for you.
