From GEOFF5@SRI-CSL Sun Aug 21 02:57:34 1983 If [X] is a toplevel directory, of device DBA0: say, then you can say $ define FOO_BAR "__DBA0:[X.]" $! and then $ backup FOO_BAR:[Y...]; MTA0: This is a way to strip off one level of directory from [X.Y...]. I don't know of a way to strip off more, since $ define FOO_BAR "__DBA0:[X.Y.]" does not work. -GJC
