According to Alfred M. Szmidt on 2/1/2007 6:21 AM:
> You won't be able to specify the suffix to remove if it is going to

> $ echo foo.h | basename --suffix=.h
> foo
Furthermore, with a --suffix option, we could also allow multiple command
line arguments, another usage case that might prove useful:
$ basename --suffix=.h foo.h bar.h
foo
bar
$
All great ideas, but who is willing to code them?
