`#! perl -w open(MYOUTFILE, ">/tmp/design_name_bot"); open (FILEH, "/tmp/strfile"); $_ = <FILEH>; print MYOUTFILE substr($_, rindex($_, '/') +1); close(FILEH); close(MYOUTFILE);` [download] Substr is the most efficient method, and he specified a one line file.	[reply] [d/l]

TedPride++ I had not thought of the `substr($_, rindex($_, '/') +1)` way to get the last 'element' off a line and this is something I find I am coding a lot here. Its always nice to learn a more efficient way to do things. Thanks, R.	[reply] [d/l]
