Ah, I was wondering about portability for this; thanks! Your solution works great and I am very pleased, but I've never used $^0 before and I can't seem to find anything about it when I search. How does it work?

    try running perldoc perlport, you'll find information on all kinds of special variables and porting gotchas.

    by the way, $^O aka $OSNAME gives you the name of your OS.
