Subject: Re: [PD] filename from path

A couple things to check out that will be better practice:

[until] instead of [metro]

[array size] instead of a [resize $1( message is better syntax in some places. And no need to resize the array every time (this is trivial in most situations, but it's not impossible that someone would want to use this in a heavy load).

Use of $0 for locality.

Above all -- [trigger] to control order of operations, which are a little ambiguous in your patch.

See attached for an alternate design.

here is a vanilla implementation, not sure if it is the easiest way, but it works here…

thanks for the guidance matt!

​I also made a [list-s2l] using a bunch of printf commands from [makefilename]. I haven't looked at it in ages – it was a few years ago (2009?), and is kind of slow, but I think it works. See attached (requires list-abs).

not vanilla: iemlib's [splitfilename] does exactly what you want
not vanilla either: zexy's [symbol2list]/[list2symbol] let's you build
that easily

vanilla only solution:  see matt's suggestion using the new:
 [list (to|from)symbol]
objects
