I have a list of filenames:
FILES := a.b c.d e.f
and I want to remove the extensions (suffixes) of all words to obtain:
a c e
what is the best way to do that?
The best I could come up with was "cheating" with shell:
$(shell for f in $(INS_NODIR); do echo -n "$${f%.*} "; done )
but I am surprised there was not a more "built-in" way of doing this only with make built-in functions.
thing I tried:
patsubst. It seems that it can only have one single wildcard, others being treated literally, and I'd like to do something like %.%, %
looking for a notsufix function.
I was surprised that this does not exist, since the dir function has notdir counterpart, but the suffix function that exactly extracts extensions does not have a notsuffix counterpart

In Unix-like operating systems such as Linux, you can use the mv command to rename a single file or directory. To rename multiple files, you can use the rename utility. To rename files recursively across subdirectories, you can use the find and rename commands together.
All replies. Open File Explorer and click View tab, Options. In Folder Options dialog, move to View tab, untick Hide extensions for known file types option, OK. Then you will se file's extension after its name, remove it.
Using rm Command To remove a file with a particular extension, use the command 'rm'. This command is very easy to use, and its syntax is something like this. In the appropriate command, 'filename1', 'filename2', etc., refer to the names, plus their full paths.
You should be using the command substitution syntax $(command) when you want to execute a command in script/command. name=$(echo "$filename" | cut -f 1 -d '. ')
Simple, just:
NAMES = $(basename $(FILES)) See the GNU make manual section on Functions for File Names
