More problems trying to use constants... I have:
use constant CFG => qq|$ENV{'HOME'}/.get_quiz|; But I can't see how to make this work: open DATA, "> CFG" or die "Couldn't open ", CFG, " for writing: $!\n"; With quote marks it creates a new file in the pwd called "CFG". (Maybe it's time to get the Programming Perl book?) -K -- Kevin Pfeiffer International University Bremen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
