Unless you really need to 'get funky' - just don't: cf: http://www.wetware.com/drieux/CS/lang/Perl/PM/useLibHack.html and yes you could try the PERLLIB5 environmental variable, but that is like so retrogressive..... I mean like so "vintage 80's"!!! ciao drieux --- { you are clearly taking the wrong turn - you are thinking of perl as a coding language.... hence that PM's are the logical consequence of that conclusion...
