That will tell you where the script was run from (and maybe not even that if chdir* is called before getcwd), but not where the script is. The Find::Bin** module will tell you where the Perl script resides: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /tmp/t.pl #!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use FindBin; use Cwd; print getcwd(), "\n"; print "I look like I am in $FindBin::Bin and I am really in $FindBin::RealBin\n"; [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ perl /tmp/t.pl /Users/cowens I look like I am in /private/tmp and I am really in /private/tmp * http://perldoc.perl.org/functions/chdir.html ** http://perldoc.perl.org/FindBin.html -- Chas.
