Hi, I am trying to write a script to backup all my company's server configs weekly. The script will run in a cronjob, on whatever I set it.
The issue I am currently having isto "extract" the directory name from a given directory string. For example: from the string "/home/testuser/projects/" I need to extract the "projects" part. The problem is that the directory names that needs to be used will never be the same lenght, so as far as my (very limited) knowledge stretches, slicing and indicing is out of the question. Can anybody help me, or give me an idea of what I should look at, seeing as I'm seriously stuck. I only started coding at the beginnig of the year, and was never interested before that, so my knowlege is basically non-existent. Thanks in advance for the help :) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
