Well for the example string you have given, this does the job : reg = /(.*):\s+(.*)/ s = "HYDERABAD/NEW DELHI: Andhra Pradesh chief minister was ...." reg.match(s) location = $1 # = "HYDERABAD/NEW DELHI" plain_content = $2 # = "Andhra Pradesh chief minister was ...."

If you need RegExp help this would help you : s = ''Bangalore.txt'' regexp = /(.*)\.(/*)/ regexp.match(s) baseName = $1 # = "Bangalore" But I must say, you should try google a bit more often as Abhinav mentioned.
