in reply to change directory

What do you mean by
after ending the script I am back in the directory where I started the example
?

Did you start your program from the command line and you expected upon ending the script to find yourself in another directory?

A program should be light and agile, its subroutines connected like a string of pearls. The spirit and intent of the program should be retained throughout. There should be neither too little or too much, neither needless loops nor useless variables, neither lack of structure nor overwhelming rigidity." - The Tao of Programming, 4.1 - Geoffrey James

    Yes. Thats what I tried to do. Starting the perl script, and after the perl script is finished, I am in a different directory.

    The perl script does much more, but the chdir function I am not able to realise.
