Does this in any way allow me to specify a relative path which can be
expanded by CGI as the full path? I'd like to be able to say
/cgi-bin/myscript/file-in-this-dir
and have the script be able to determine that it really needs to play with
/usr/local/WWW/documents/project/smell-server/file-in-this-dir
or whatever. The absolute paths make it real hard to move hierarchies
around, trade 'em with your friends, etc.
Perhaps if I explicitely wanted an absolute path, I'd specify
something like:
/cgi-bin/myscript//full/leading/path/dir/file-in-this-dir
with a double slash.
Thanks.
