PathChangeExtension

Replaces a path's extension, or removes it when the new one is empty.

Syntax

PathChangeExtension( p, ext )

Notes

• ext with or without its dot; "" removes

Examples

#import "std/fs"
using fs

print PathChangeExtension( "main.tiko", ".o" )       '' main.o

'' The dot is optional in the argument -- both forms mean the same
print PathChangeExtension( "main.tiko", "o" )        '' main.o

'' An EMPTY extension REMOVES it
print PathChangeExtension( "main.tiko", "" )         '' main

'' A file with no extension gains one
print PathChangeExtension( "README", ".md" )        '' README.md
