NAME

PathPart -- Returns a pointer to the end of the next-to-last (V36) component of a path.

SYNOPSIS

    fileptr = PathPart( path )
    D0                   D1

    STRPTR PathPart( STRPTR )

FUNCTION

This function returns a pointer to the character after the next-to-last component of a path specification, which will normally be the directory name. If there is only one component, it returns a pointer to the beginning of the string. The only real difference between this and FilePart is the handling of '/'.

INPUTS

path - pointer to an path string. May be relative to the current directory or the current disk.

RESULT fileptr - pointer to the end of the next-to-last component of the path.

EXAMPLE PathPart("xxx:yyy/zzz/qqq") would return a pointer to the last '/'. PathPart("xxx:yyy") would return a pointer to the first 'y').
