in reply to relative symbolic links helpers

Note that File::Spec's offers a abs2rel method which does a very similar thing. It is more portable -- it will work on the MacOS, VMS, etc. The only difference I can see is that it does not resolve symbolic links before computing the relative path, something that can be easily worked around.

    you are so very right :)) i wish i could --vote myself for this o;-) i never noticed the presence of abs2rel in File::Spec :( ... so, i've updated my previous node to merely show up some hopefully useful things =)
