Very simple i would think, like "system('export 
CVSROOT=/path/to/repository')" Or so i would I guess; what i just wrote does 
not work for me. 

I'm needing this for a CVS repository selection script. Does this make sense? 
All of the repositories are on a single server. Here's my logic.

# Open the CVS root directory (Where all the repositories will be stored 
under) and show a menu to the user of all repositories available.
# Give user a choice of each directory (repository) to select as their own 
CVSROOT
# Export that path to bash environmental variable CVSROOT

Cool? Probably not, but i'd still like to know how to export a variable in 
bash through perl. I've tried a few things like creating a bash script *.sh 
and the sourcing it through system('source whatever.sh'), but it always 
claims that source isn't a correct command. Cool?

Thanks guys, anything will help. Sorry this isn't pure perl. I'll have a 
better question next time. ;-) 

        Thanks a bundle!
