Josh Steiner about [PD] splitting symbols -or- regular expressions? / Today
|hello wise and helpful list members ;) | |I need to find a way to take the absolute path name that [openpanel] spits |out and truncate off all the directory information to just get the |filename. I can't find a working [regexp] object out there to use. is |there any way right now in pd to split up a symbol into its component |tokens? I know that this has been talked about before, but I havn't been |able to find an answere in the archives. this is as close as I got: | |http://iem.kug.ac.at/mailinglists/pd-list/2002-02/0366.html | |the conclussion of this thread was "use [shell]" but as far as i know, |[shell] doesnt exist on windows 2000 and I need my patch to run on |windows, osx and linux. | |thanks again for any advice. | |-Josh | |________________________________________________________________ |Josh ..
