R help - Aug 2010 - how to take a os.path.basename

Hi, all

I made a simple R script to take the basename of a file without directory
names.

path.splitted <- strsplit('/path/to/a_basename', '/')
path.length <- length(path.splitted[[1]])
basename <- path.splitted[[1]][path.length] # basename <-
'a_basename'

Is there a simple function for this?

something like os.path.basename(a_filename) of python?

Thanks in advance,

Hyunchul

Take a look on ?basename help page.
