Personally, I'd probably consider using the "file dirname" command since you're talking of the directory separator (/), or in a more generic case, a split/lrange/join combo.

A regular expression however, would look something like this:

Code:

^(.*)/[^^]+$

Implementing this in tcl would look something like this:

Code:

set string ".this/is/some/text/in/here"set pattern {^(.*)/[^^]+$}regexp -- $pattern $string Match subMatch1#You'll now find "./this/is/some/text/in" in the $subMatch1 variable, if we've got a match...

Hi everyone

Im afraid its quite easy, but i dont get it.

Example:

.this/is/some/text/in/here

All i need is always getting except the text after the last /
In this case -> .this/is/some/text/in

Thanks
