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)
StripSuffix("word.doc.pdf")
to StripSuffix(x)
set my text item delimiters to "."
return reverse of (rest of (reverse of (text items of x))) as string
end StripSuffix
