when i "use DB_File" the files produced lack a dot in their title, eg.
dbmopen %email, email.db, 0666;
manipulates a file who's directory entry is actually emaildb
MORE IMPORTANTLY, perl will not access a database outside of the same
directory as the script -- it pulls a blank hash. without being able
to include any functional path in the filenames, i can't even call the
script with a soft link...i have to use a shell script to cd first
that is ridiculous and i presume a bug that may have been fixed
somewhere?
