Title: Option for basename to strip prefix in stead of suffix Status in coreutils package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: coreutils The tool basename should have an option to strip prefix in stead of suffix. Now it can only cut off characters at the end of a string, but for some operations it is desirable to cut chararcters from the beginning of the string. Implementing this request will allow users to have more control over using derived versions of filenames.
