Hi there!
I want to get the current environment variable (current directory), and I
type like this:
$currentpath = %ENV;
and I get something like 37/64
instead of maybe usr/username/test
How do I get current directory?

Why do you expect this to do anything useful?
You're assigning the contents of a hash into a single scalar.
That will almost never do anything useful.
As others noted, if you want a specific element from a hash, you have to
name it explicitly --
$currentpath = $ENV{PWD};
-- or, as another person noted, use the Cwd module to do this in a more
guaranteed to be portable way.
But in any case, assigning a (full) hash to a scalar will never work :-)
