The FindBin::Real module does an admirable job of finding the directory for the calling script. But if there are any files included that use it, it fails in them. I want to find something that works an arbitrary number of levels deep. Here's the situation:

/test.pl
(in this context, Bin() should return '/')
('require's Bin()/config.pl and Bin()/scrape_courses/scrape_courses.pl)

/scrape_courses/scrape_courses.pl
(in this context, I want Bin() to return '/scrape_courses')
('require's Bin()/../config.pl and Bin()/scrape_courses.template)

When I run test.pl, it gives me this error Cannot find current script './test.pl' at /scrape_courses/scrape_courses.pl line 30

So it's still not doing just what I need: every file, 'require'd some arbitrary number of levels deep, needs to know the full path to itself without being hard coded.

Thanks,
Andy
