in thread How to remove the words before the dot using perl?

Parts of the OP suggest that File::Basename may be preferable to custom coding.

> my $suffix = $file; # suggests a file name
> ...
> rev1.config # looks like a file name

The desired result may need some care in reading the module documentation 
perldoc File::Basename

[download]
with extra attention near the helpful line: 
fileparse("/foo/bar/baz.txt", qr/\.[^.]*/);
