What does the !! do ... I cannot find a reference to it.
It is the REPLACEMENT part of the s/PATTERN/REPLACEMENT/ operator,
but using an exclamation point (!) as the demiter instead of slash (/).
Abigail's code above is equivalent to:
s/.*\///;
but easier to read and understand because don't have to mentally
filter-out the backslash.
