    Additional options in dynamic file name ...

    I want to be able to trim part of a dynamic file path from the right (the end of the string).

    Maybe
    [RTRIM]count,target[]
    so
    [RTRIM]6,[album][]
    would turn
    "The Wall, CD 1" in to "The Wall"

    Perhaps more generally, a regex engine could be included?

    [REGEX]pattern,target[]
    so
    [REGEX]s/, CD \d+//[album][]
    would turn
    "The Wall, CD 1" in to "The Wall"

    Or maybe
    [REGEX]match pattern, substitution pattern, target[]
    so
    [REGEX](.*), CD \d+,$1,[album][]

    Hmm, the ',' inside those examples might cause issues, and the [] characters are often used in regexes too. I think I've talked myself out of that idea!
Working...
