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:

 |
 |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.
