in thread file name parsing to get the original file name

Wouldn't it be easier just to do:

$path=~/.*\/(.*)$/;$name=$1;

Basically nuke everything in the way and grab what's left??

The check:

$path=~/.*\/(.*)$/;$name=$1; 

Doesn't take into account that the path might *not* have a directory component...
