Whoops! ~~c>$^O</c> is the name of the currently running script, not the name of the thing from which it was started.~~	[reply]

$0 actually is the name of current script. $^O is the name of the operating system, and what's wrong with it is documented in perlvar. Perl 6 - links to (nearly) everything that is Perl 6.	[reply]

No, I think you have confused `$0`, (dollar-zero) script name, with `$^O`, (dollar-caret-uppercase oh) operating system name. Cheers, JohnGG	[reply] [d/l] [select]
