NAME
       basename - strip file name affixes

SYNOPSIS
       basename [ -d ] string [ suffix ]

DESCRIPTION
       Basename	 deletes  any  prefix  ending  in slash (/) and the suffix, if
       present in string, from string, and prints the result on	 the  standard
       output.

       The  -d	option instead prints the directory component, that is, string
       up to but not including the final slash.	 If  the  string  contains  no
       slash, the current directory name is printed.
