Subject: param modifier to strip _all_ suffixes?
Date: Sat, 20 Mar 1999 13:50:56 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <19990320135056.A20712@astaroth.nit.gwu.edu> (raw)
is there a token modifier like :r that strips _all_
suffixes of the form `.xxx', rather than just the last one--the
equivalent of ${PARAM%%.*} instead of just ${PARAM%.*}? perhaps,
if there isn't, :R could be given that meaning?
