23@deftypefn Replacement {const char*} lbasename (const char *@var{name})
24
25Given a pointer to a string containing a typical pathname
26(@samp{/usr/src/cmd/ls/ls.c} for example), returns a pointer to the
27last component of the pathname (@samp{ls.c} in this case). The
28returned pointer is guaranteed to lie within the original
29string. This latter fact is not true of many vendor C
30libraries, which return special strings or modify the passed
31strings for particular input.
32
33In particular, the empty string returns the same empty string,
34and a path ending in @code{/} returns the empty string after it.
