in reply to Basename Module

From the File::Basename POD, you specify a full path to a file (or directory), such as:

As an aside, you normally do not want to put a scalar by itself in double quotes: 

print $dirname;

    Thank you for the reply. It was putting the scalar in double quotes that was the issue. Thank you very much.
