Right, but it's important to know what sort of system you happen to be using, so that you invoke the `fileparse_set_fstype()` function when necessary: `$ uname -s Darwin $ echo '\one\two\three\four' \one\two\three\four $ echo '\one\two\three\four' \| perl -MFile::Basename -lne 'print basename($_)' \one\two\three\four $ echo '\one\two\three\four' \| perl -MFile::Basename -lne 'BEGIN{fileparse_set_fstype("DOS")} prin +t basename($_)' four` [download] The above would work out the same way if the result of "uname -s" had been linux or unix.

Only if you assume he wasn't dealing with a path in the first place. I assumed the OP was dealing with paths. If he's not, I believe he's better off not using File::Basename at all rather than your workaround.	[reply]

With Path::Class, that can be written as `#!/usr/bin/perl -- use strict; use warnings; use Path::Class; print file(qw' \one\two\three\four ')->basename; print "\n"; __END__ four` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
