Thank you for opening this bug and helping making Ubuntu better. Before
I propose this upstream, I would like to know more about what you would
like to have -- is it just a fixed prefix (pretty much like the suffix
currently supported)?
For example (and supposing this new option is to be triggered by the
'-p' or '--prefix' parameter):
basename --prefix atest /this/is/a/sample/atest-data.filename
would return '-data.filename', while
basename --prefix atest /this/is/a/sample/atest-data.filename .filename
would return '-data'.
Is this a correct interpretation?
Thanks.
** Changed in: coreutils (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Incomplete
