Re: [bdbxml] Beginners question with Perl

I've created the following script

setVerbose 0 0

preload books.dbxml

query '
for $collection in collection("books.dbxml")/collection return <link 
class="collectiontitle" title="{$collection/@title/text()}" 
idref="{$collection/@id/text()}" />
'
print

quit

Which when run produces

[Bible]$ dbxml -s test.xquery
<link class="collectiontitle" title="analects" idref="b4"/>
<link class="collectiontitle" title="Bhagavad-Gita" idref="b3"/>
<link class="collectiontitle" title="bible" idref="b1"/>
<link class="collectiontitle" title="koran" idref="b2"/>
[Bible]$

However in the perl script I cannot get away with giving anything less 
than the full path to the data, ie 
/Users/peterhickman/Work/Bible/books.dbxml.
