Basename(1) first appeared in the 7th edition. It was not in the 6th edition, or PWB releases. It's on all the subsequent descendants. Dirname(1) first appeared in System III, and was later picked up in 4.3-Reno and 8th edition research unix (though was not in 4.1BSD where the bulk of 8th edition came from). In System III and V8 it was a shell script, though the BSD version is in C. Sponsored by: Netflix

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility deletes any prefix ending with the last slash
|
|
.Ql \&/
|
|
character present in
|
|
.Ar string
|
|
(after first stripping trailing slashes),
|
|
and a
|
|
.Ar suffix ,
|
|
if given.
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar suffix
|
|
is not stripped if it is identical to the remaining characters in
|
|
.Ar string .
|
|
The resulting filename is written to the standard output.
|
|
A non-existent suffix is ignored.
|
|
If
|
|
.Fl a
|
|
is specified, then every argument is treated as a
|
|
.Ar string
|
|
as if
|
|
.Nm
|
|
were invoked with just one argument.
|
|
If
|
|
.Fl s
|
|
is specified, then the
|
|
.Ar suffix
|
|
is taken as its argument, and all other arguments are treated as a
|
|
.Ar string .

|

|
.Ar string
|
|
(after first stripping trailing slashes),
