Dear list,
I have the following sample:
\starttext
\startluacode
url = "../a/b/cb/ce.b/ca.b/c/dabc.pdf"
context(url)
context("\\\\0 ok. " .. url:match "^(.*).pdf$") -- name and path
context("\\\\1. " .. url:match "^(.*).+$") -- path
context("\\\\2. " .. url:match"[^/]+[.$]") -- name
context("\\\\3 ok. " .. url:match "[^.]+$") -- extension
\stopluacode
\stoptext
How can I get that match for #1 ends in the last slash (including it
"../a/b/cb/ce.b/ca.b/c/") and match for #2 ends in the last period
(excluding it, "dabc")?
it really helps to read the cld manual (or look into l-* files) as there
are plenty of efficient helpers for these things
local s = "./a/b/cb/ce.b/ca.b/c/dabc.pdf"
print(file.pathpart(s))
print(file.nameonly(s))
print(file.basename(s))
print(file.suffix(s))
print(file.replacesuffix(s,"tmp"))
