So, just taking the filename doesn't work.
Sorry to come late to the party... IIUC, you have a pathname and you want to somehow determine which part of it is the basename (which may or may not include an arbitrary number of levels tail-end directories). Do I have that correct? Is the pathname you're parsing an absolute path? If so I have some ideas... -JAC _______________________________________________ mythtv-dev mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-dev
