tr is for translating characters, not strings.
This sed commands removes everything up to the final slash on each
line:
sed 's|.*/||' File.txt
Or you could use awk:
awk 'sub(/.*\//,"")' File.txt
Or you could use a shell loop:
while IFS= read -r line
do
printf "%s\n" "${line##*/}
done < File.txt
Or a filter in C ....... [OT - available on request]
