pmlogbasename - basename of a PCP archive
pmlogbasename name
pmlogbasename takes name (usually the name of one of the physical
files in a PCP archive) and strips it of any compression suffixes
then strips it of any PCP archive component suffixes, then reports
the result (the basename of a PCP archive) on standard output.
The compression suffixes known to PCP are: .xz, .lzma, .bz2, .bz,
.gz, .Z and .z.
The PCP archive component suffixes are: .meta, .index and .<n> for
any integer <n>.
For the most part the stripping is purely textual and is done
without tests for the existence of any of the associated files,
although if name does not match the pattern of a valid file name
for a PCP archive then the output is name without any stripping.
The one exception is when name ends with .N where N is a sequence
of 1 or more digits, in which case an ambiguity occurs. For
example consider name to be 20241125.05.48, where this could mean
the archive basename is really 20241125.05.48 or it could mean
this refers to volume 48 of the archive basename 20241125.05. In
the former case, the file name.meta (or one of the compressed
versions of this) should exist and pmlogbasename probes the
filesystem to determine if such a file exists.
