Hi Uri,
Thanks for the response.
I was using both Komodo Edit and Primalscript and
didn't see a compile error, until I added the ref to $!
then I could see that my filepath was being damaged
because of the doublequotes.
The reason I wondered about the full path was because I
have been using Powershell an awful lot these last two years
and I am aware of certain scenarios where sometimes you
have to supply a full path and sometimes you only have to
supply a path relative to where you have "cd" into, or in the
case of Powershell "set-location", though "cd" is an alias.
Whereas something like [system.io.file]::ReadALLLines("$path")
where $path must be the full path.
Sorry for any confusion about the use of /* */, thats just a bad
habit.
I've only just installed and begun to learn Perl. The books arrived
today
so I'm looking forward to the journey!
Thanks again,
Stuart
