From: eggie5 Date: 2007-09-06T05:55:07+09:00 Subject: simple get file by filename Consider this: I have a list of files that I get by calling: Dir.entries("/") I just want to search this list and match the file name that matches 1_1.* ( i.e. the filename without the extension) So, for example, If the pattern to match against the list was "jpg_image." it should return the filename "jpg_image.jpg" (assuming the file exists). What's the most succinct way to do this in ruby?
