Re: using change directory within perl script

[bms]

in reply to using change directory within perl script

Why are you using chdir with File::chdir?

Try using it like:

...
use File::chdir;

$CWD = '/usr/bin'; # Oh hey, in /usr/bin/
...

Or

...
use File::chdir;

$CWD = '/home/me/perl'; # Now in /home/me/perl

{
    local $CWD = '/home/you/python'; # Now in /home/you/python
    ...
}

# Back in /home/me/perl
...

Hope this helps!
