extracting a field from directory path ??????
Hi

I'll be getting a directory path as the input to the script.
E.g. 1 abc/fsg/sdfhgsa/fasgfsd/adfghad/XXX/fhsad
e.g. 2 sadfg/sadgjhgds/sd/dtuc/cghcx/dtyue/dfghsdd/XXX/qytq


This input will be stored in a variable.

My query is how to extract the field in a variable VAR which occurs just before XXX
Please note that XXX position is not fixed in the directory path.



Kindly provide the code.

Thanks and Best Regards
