path, storing the name part in the environment variable
<literal>strippedName</literal>. For example:
<programlisting>
stripHash "/nix/store/9s9r019176g7cvn2nvcw41gsp862y6b4-coreutils-8.24"
# prints coreutils-8.24
echo $strippedName
</programlisting>
If you wish to store the result in another variable, then the
following idiom may be useful:
<programlisting>
name="/nix/store/9s9r019176g7cvn2nvcw41gsp862y6b4-coreutils-8.24"
someVar=$(stripHash $name; echo $strippedName)
</programlisting>
