parse a string variable
Hello all, need a little help.
I have an input variable such as ARGV[0] which equals something like
/use/home/name/script/test.dat
I need to be able to get just the "test.dat" (i.e. the file name) at the end of the directory and the directory can be anything and any length. To put it another way, I want the value after the last "/".
Thanks.

NAME
pactester - Tool to test proxy auto-config (pac) files.
SYNOPSIS
pactester <-p pacfile> <-u url> [-h host] [-c client_ip] [-e]
pactester <-p pacfile> <-f urlslist> [-c client_ip] [-e]
DESCRIPTION
pactester is a tool to test proxy auto-config (pac) files. It returns the proxy config string for the given URL and the pac file. pactester
uses pacparser C library for most of its functionality.
OPTIONS
-p pacfile
PAC file to test. Specify "-" to read from the standard input.
-u url URL to test the PAC file for.
-h host
Host part of the URL. If not specified, it's determined from the URL.
-c client_ip
Client's IP address (as returned by the function myIpAddress() in PAC files). If not specified, it defaults to the IP address of
the machine on which this tool is running.
-e Enable Microsoft PAC extensions (dnsResolveEx, myIpAddressEx, isResolvableEx).
-f urlslist
A file containing the list of URLs to be tested. This is good for testing a PAC file against a set of URLs.
EXAMPLES
To find out the proxy config string for the pac file "wpad.dat" and the URL "http://www.google.com":
$ pactester -p wpad.dat -u http://www.google.com
For a client with IP address 10.0.12.123:
$ pactester -p wpad.dat -c 10.0.12.123 -u http://www.google.com
For a pac file hosted at http://wpad/wpad.dat:
$ curl -s http://wpad/wpad.dat | pactester -p - -u http://google.com
