BASENAME(1)		     General Commands Manual		     BASENAME(1)

NAME
     basename - strip file name affixes

SYNOPSIS
     basename [ -d ] string [ suffix ]

DESCRIPTION
     Basename  deletes any prefix ending in slash (/) and the suffix, if present
     in string, from string, and prints the result on the standard output.

     The -d option instead prints the directory component, that is, string up to
     but not including the final slash.  If the string contains no slash, a  pe-
     riod and newline are printed.

SOURCE
