    You already have all the pieces that you need:

    1. In your root node you show how you get the command line arguments.
    2. bart showed you how to
      1. get the pathname of the project.txt file using File::Basename,
      2. parse the value out of the REVISION_LOCATION: line, and
      3. turn that filename from relative to absolute using File::Spec's rel2abs, using the pathname of project.txt as the base.

    If you're unsure on how to open the project.txt file instead of using the magic while(<>) that bart used, please see "Files and I/O" in perlintro.

    Updated wording slightly.

        Sorry, I don't understand what you are asking. Could you show the problem using a short, runnable piece of code so that others can see the same problem on their computers?

        In the last 14 days you have posted a total of 77 nodes so far, 19 of which are root nodes (questions), and as far as I can tell, in many cases the responses to your questions have probably been unsatisfactory. If you take the time to read the following three pages, and use the suggestions from those pages when you ask questions, I think you will find that you will get much better and faster answers to your questions.
