The newest vanilla versions have [list fromsymbol] and [list tosymbol]. If you write it the output of [list fromsymbol] into an array using [array set] you can find the last / character (ascii 47), [array get] the rest ([list length] will help you figure out how much to get), and turn it back into a symbol with [list tosymbol].

hi list,
is it possible to get only the filename from openpanel? (in vanilla) or to extract the filename from the whole path? (i know this was not possible in earlier versions, but maybe it works somehow now)
