Ok I am curious,  Can I do the following.  This way I can have the template 
name that is assocated with the script and at the same level as the script 
directory.  All the while not having to modify the following line.  I would 
like it to be a cut and paste into each script.


my $t = HTML::Template->new(filename => $0.'.tmpl',
                               path     => '../templates');
