Greeting Cloverleafers!!!

Can anyone provide a handy code to look at the last occurance of a delimiter?

Example:

Code: Fluid-Restricted, 1500 ml-FR1500

There could be dashes within the description (Fluid-Restricted, 1500 ml) but I always want the last part (FR1500) delimited by “-“.

Thanks in advance!

  hcitcl>set data “Fluid-Restricted, 1500 ml-FR1500”
  
  Fluid-Restricted, 1500 ml-FR1500
  
  hcitcl>echo [lindex [split $data -] end]
  
  FR1500

  If you know what your delimiter is always gonna be, it’s easy.

  Exactly what I am looking for, thanks a bunch! I use this
  
  Code: string trim [lindex [split $data -] end]
  
  to get rid of unexpected spaces too.
