I want to write a perl script to 
replace a Unix shell script which
does nothing other than create 
and set environment variables.

So the perl script might look something like this:

$ENV{GREGSVAR}='Hello';

except that when I run the script, the
assignment doesn't seem to stick, and
the environment variable GREGSVAR doesn't
exist after the perl script is finished
executing.

looking up environment variables in the
perl bible and the perl cookbook didn't
show anything about sticky environment variables.

can this be done in perl?

Greg
