Perhaps if you included more details about how you're running it (and see the FindBin module).

Did you know that FindBin is "broken" (well, perverse)? Just use File::Spec: `require File::Spec; my $script= File::Spec->rel2abs( $0 )` [download] - tye	[reply] [d/l]

Thanks for your fast reply, Fletch. I knew there must be something, but couldn't find anywhere. FindBin does what I mean. Perfect, thanks! As for changing the path, I should have included more context, sorry. I was talking of running GUI applications in Mac OS X ".app" format (and using a perl script as the executable), and not of standalone scripts, of course.	[reply]
