in reply to Platform independant directory separator
I searched for a special perl var for your purpose without success.
Perhaps the following fact will help you(?):
You can use slash (in the most cases) as directory seperator under Windows systems too.
But beside Unix/Linux and Windows I don't know what seperators are in use and if slash could be also used.

What you actually mean is that the file system operations that Perl give you have had an inline tr!/!\\! added during the port to windows so that scripts written for UNIX will run OK. External commands only respect the backslash. | [reply] [d/l] |
