Is there a way to capure all, or part, of a filename and assign it to an object. Say I wanted to read in a file tiled "example.txt" and then assign the character string "example" (or "exa" or any other substring of "example" for that matter), to object a. Is there a simple way to do so? Thanks in advance for any help.
