Full Discussion: Finding file extension on C Shell script
Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Finding file extension on C Shell script Post 302924136 by MadeInGermany on Thursday 6th of November 2014 12:47:09 PM

$1 is the first argument when one runs the script (on the command line or from another script), for example
Code:
./yourscript example.zip

${1:e} is the "filename extension" i.e. the part after the last dot (and file type in Windos).
The e is a modifier. See
Code:
man csh

for other modifiers.
C-shell wants to expand/match/substitute a $variable so always quote it "$variable". Or, more general, have them in quotes like the following two variables
Code:
echo "$var1 and ${var2:e}"

NB you need the braces if you use a modifier. Without a modifier you can still use braces: echo "${var1}"
