Hi list,
recently in another post I found the internal LaTeX macro

  \input@path

mentioned. Putting this (surrounded by \makeatletter and \makeatother)
in an ERT eventually gives me the correct path to my LyX document as
string in the document.

Soooooooo many thanks to the poster of that other message (soem days ago) !

Here is now my question to the LaTeX gurus:
How can I define a LaTeX macro which gives me the END of the string
delivered by \input@path?
To give a concrete example: When I open document test-01.lyx with LyX in
the directory

   /home/leo/leo/Tests/Lyx-Tests/Inputpath/blam

and compile my document it shows the correct path

   /home/leo/leo/Tests/Lyx-Tests/Inputpath/blam/

Fine.

What I would like to derive from this string is
   /.../Lyx-Tests/Inputpath/blam/                 ;-)
See what I mean?

My LaTeX experience told me the need for \makeat...,
but this transformation I'm not able to do in LaTeX.


Any help appreciated


Cheers

Hellmut
