code fragment
Hi
I'm looking at some old unix code and, need some help figuring out some of the commands. Here is the line that I'm having trouble with: echo "$(date) ${0##*/} started" >> $summary.log I know the first statement prints out the date but, I don't understand the second command on the line ${0##*/} - what is this doing? I know $0 is the script name but, I don't know what the rest of the command should print out. I know this is very old code -- does anyone know what the command ${0##*/} is supposed to echo out? tia |
