       This  manual  page  documents the GNU version of bbaasseennaammee.
       The bbaasseennaammee command removes any leading path  from  _n_a_m_e;
       If  _s_u_f_f_i_x  is  specified  and  is identical to the end of
       _n_a_m_e, it is removed from _n_a_m_e as  well.   bbaasseennaammee  prints
       the resulting name on the standard output.
