Subject: Quick Bash question
Howdy,

    I have a real quick need for a dirty bash script which I don't forsee using 
for long.  I apologize for not doing any research, but I need to quickly know 
how to do the following and I figured one of the gurus here could help me out 
in the short term, so I can learn all about this later...


I have a text file filled with entires of the following.

/some/dir/foo.extension
/some/dir/bar.extension
/some/dir/x.extension
etc.


I would like to parse the file and generate a new text file that looks like
this:

foo
bar
x
etc.

The directories and the extensions are all the same.

Oh and if it matters:

[zoom@godzilla zoom]$ /bin/bash -version
GNU bash, version 2.05b.0(1)-release (i686-pc-linux-gnu)


Thanks a TON!!!
