Re^2: Check last character of a string

Well it fails as in I need the string to end with \ because I use it as a folder name adding filenames to it. So when the ARGV does not end with \ the adding goes wrong.

Have you thought about using File::Spec`->catfile` instead?	[reply] [d/l]

Hi, for me this works: `#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; my @tests = qw( path1 paht2\ ); for my $location (@tests) { print "before: '$location'\n"; $location .= '\\' unless $location =~ m(\\$); print "after: '$location'\n"; } __END__ before: 'path1' after: 'path1\' before: 'paht2\' after: 'paht2\'` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
