It makes the defaults explicit. (From last to last; put in column 1.)

I came up with the following solution although I don't think it is very elegant (because of the multiple stages). 'PIPE stem dirstem.' , '| find BUILD' , '| split' , '| take last' , '| var LastWord' I was wondering if there was a stage or maybe something in SPEC that would allow me to do this on one line rather than the two (split and take last) that I'm using now.
