Returns the file name up to its first dot, so a.tar.gz gives a.

Notes

• The file name up to its FIRST dot, a leading dot not counting. PathStem stops at the LAST dot.

Examples

#import "std/fs"
using fs

print PathFilePrefix( "/d/archive.tar.gz", FB_PATH_POSIX )    '' archive
print PathStem( "/d/archive.tar.gz", FB_PATH_POSIX )          '' archive.tar
print PathFilePrefix( ".bashrc", FB_PATH_POSIX )             '' .bashrc
