Eh? On win2K, ActivePerl 5.8, the following: #!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; print "$0\n"; renders this at the command prompt: E:\d_drive\perlStuff\guests>samplefileused.pl E:\d_drive\perlStuff\guests\SampleFileUsed.pl Looks to me like you have any information you need about the current script and it's location.
