Perl: How File::Spec->canonpath($path) works
<p>What is this method doing?</p>

<p>I simply don't understand it's purpose, and the explanation in perldoc is not helping me.</p>

<p>Now I need to update a Script that uses this method, so it would be good to understand what it is doing.</p>

<p>Is there a simple tutorial to understand the method?</p>

<p>Thank you</p>
