I feel like maybe I didn't explain it clearly enough so sorry about that. All I needed is that the file content remains untouched except that absolute paths get reduced to just the file name they contain, which is now not happening as I see the original file being copied over as is. Thanks a lot for all your help so far!

I think sed is doing something wrong as it's not removing the path as it should.

nope it's not the sed it's the basename ! that line just copied the path as it is and then it pastes it over so obviously the final file remains unchanged help?

is it possible a unix/linux system does not interpret correctly Windows paths as in the examples I provided? that could be a cause nothing is changed from the original file. in this case how can I tell my unix system that the Windows path is really a path and not a regular string?
