Hi, This is more an Emacs question than Perl, but I haven't found much in the way of Emacs help... I am trying to transfer from UltraEdit to Emacs because I've heard such great things about it... I mostly develop Perl scripts, and one invaluable feature in UltraEdit is a Ctrl-Shift-0 tool I set up to submit the full name of the file of my active tab to Perl, and capture the output in the output box. Can someone point me to where there is similar functionality in Emacs? It seems like something basic that should have been baked in long ago, but I just can't seem to find it. Any help is appreciated, thanks, matt
