Title: Getting filename without
extension...
This can probably be optimized, but this should do the trick
reasonably efficiently. I'm sure someone can figure out how to do it
in one line of code.
set x to
"abc.def.ghi"
set AppleScript's text
item delimiters
to "."
set y to every text item of
x
set z to first item
of y
if (count y)
< 3 then
return (z)
repeat
with i from 2 to (count y)
- 1
set
z to z & "." & item
i of y
end
repeat
return(z)
Note that this should even work in OS9. With things like this you
have watch for special cases. The first return statement avoids
problems when the list generated from the string has only one or two
items in it.
