filename without path

BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax Programming/filename without path

whats the easiest way of changing ..
/home/someone/soneidr/afilename.jpg
to afilename.jpg

the most elegent easy solution wins the right to pay £1 to charity a prize you cant refuse! :))

Local dir$ = "/home/someone/soneidr/afilename.jpg"
dir = StripDir( dir )


Function StripDir$( path$ )

argh, lost the prize :S

Yep, now I get to pay £1 to a charity :D

DUH, i new it was in there somewhere!!

as CS_TBL's solution was of equal skill I have decided to award the first prize to both...

thx guys
