Given a variable with something like this in it:
/Volumes/Projects/Testing/Simple_Carbon_App.pkg
I need to extract the base path to get:
/Volumes/Projects/Testing
I found how to get the last part in an example, though I don't fully
understand what's going on. Assuming "path" has the first volume path,
calling this:
path=${path##/*/}
Will set path to: Simple_Carbon_App.pkg
I'm looking for more or less the opposite of that.
Any pointers to documentation would be good. Working code is nice too. :P
Thanks,
Rob
