taking the end off a path
I need a script to be able to take a path such as "/foo/bar/thing" a put the "/foo/bar/" bit in one variable and the "thing" bit in another.
I figured awk would probably be the best tool for the job but looking at the man page didn't seem to help. The only way i know how to use awk is with '{print $1, $2 ,$3}' but that doesn't help unless i can get it to count from the end of the string. What should i do? |
