This could say "remove all but the part of the file extension following the `.'" and refer to :r. That seems to be unambiguous, given that :r defines it to include the ".". (Or we could of course say that :r removed the "." and the file extension, but that seems to make the description more waffly.) -- Peter Stephenson Software Engineer Tel: +44 (0)1223 692070 Cambridge Silicon Radio Limited Churchill House, Cambridge Business Park, Cowley Road, Cambridge, CB4 0WZ, UK Member of the CSR plc group of companies.
