If you specify the same directory in your FPATH and PATH
variables, and you type in a "command" (e.g. hello), and
there exists a file called hello in that common directory,
will the shell first attempt to interpret this file as a
function, and failing this, then re-attempt to interpret
it as a script/binary-executable?
I've always kept my FPATH and PATH pathnames separate, but
my current work location is mixing the two (i.e. they put
scripts, binaries AND functions in the "bin" directory).
I have a bin directory for scripts and binaries, and a
funcs directory for functions.
Thanks!

Hi,
I have a file with about 60 lines of path:
app-defaults/boxXYZ.......
I want to change this to /my/path/goes/here/app-defaults/boxXYZ, but of course vi doesn't like the regualr :s/old/new/ command.
Is there any other quick way to do this?
Thanks ;) (2 Replies)

jifty::util
Jifty::Util(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Jifty::Util(3pm)
NAME
Jifty::Util - Things that don't fit anywhere else
DESCRIPTION
absolute_path PATH
"absolute_path" converts PATH into an absolute path, relative to the application's root (as determined by "app_root") This can be called
as an object or class method.
canonicalize_path PATH
Takes a "path" style /foo/bar/baz and returns a canonicalized (but not necessarily absolute) version of the path. Always use "/" as the
separator, even on platforms which recognizes both "/" and "" as valid separators in PATH.
jifty_root
Returns the root directory that Jifty has been installed into. Uses %INC to figure out where Jifty.pm is.
share_root
Returns the 'share' directory of the installed Jifty module. This is currently only used to store the common Mason components, CSS, and JS
of Jifty and it's plugins.
app_root
Returns the application's root path. This is done by returning $ENV{'JIFTY_APP_ROOT'} if it exists. If not, Jifty tries searching upward
from the current directory, looking for a directory which contains a "bin/jifty". Failing that, it searches upward from wherever the
executable was found.
It "die"s if it can only find "/usr" or "/usr/local" which fit these criteria.
is_app_root PATH
Returns a boolean indicating whether the path passed in is the same path as the app root. Useful if you're recursing up a directory tree
and want to stop when you've hit the root. It does not attempt to handle symbolic links.
default_app_name
Returns the default name of the application. This is the name of the application's root directory, as defined by "app_root".
make_path PATH
When handed a directory, creates that directory, starting as far up the chain as necessary. (This is what 'mkdir -p' does in your shell).
require PATH
Uses UNIVERSAL::require to require the provided "PATH". Additionally, logs any failures at the "error" log level.
try_to_require Module
This method works just like "require", except that it suppresses the error message in cases where the module isn't found.
already_required class
Helper function to test whether a given class has already been loaded.
generate_uuid
Generate a new UUID using Data::UUID.
reference_to_data Object
Provides a saner output format for models than "MyApp::Model::Foo=HASH(0x1800568)".
stringify LIST
Takes a list of values and forces them into strings. Right now all it does is concatenate them to an empty string, but future versions
might be more magical.
