Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users A way to print only part of directory path Post 303011584 by Scott on Saturday 20th of January 2018 06:54:03 AM

Your desired output is inconsistent. You want the trailing /, or not?
Code:
sed "s|\(.*/logs\)[$/].*|\1|" # no
sed "s|\(.*/logs[$/]\).*|\1|" # yes

grep -o can do the same thing, probably more efficiently, but -o is possibly not portable, depending on where you plan to use it.
