Environment Variables
                            The installation paths that you set during
the build get compiled into perl, so you
                            don't have to do anything additional to
start using that perl (except add its
                            location to your PATH variable). 

                            If you put extensions in unusual places,
you can set PERL5LIB to a list of paths
                            separated by semicolons where you want perl
to look for libraries. Look for
                            descriptions of other environment variables
you can set in the perlrun manpage.

                            You can also control the shell that perl
uses to run system() and backtick
                            commands via PERL5SHELL. See the perlrun
manpage.

                            Perl does not depend on the registry, but
it can look up certain default values if
                            you choose to put them there. Perl attempts
to read entries from
                            HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Perl and
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Perl.
                            Entries in the former override entries in
the latter. One or more of the following
                            entries (of type REG_SZ or REG_EXPAND_SZ)
may be set:

                                lib-$]              version-specific
standard library path to add to @INC
                                lib                 standard library
path to add to @INC
                                sitelib-$]          version-specific
site library path to add to @INC
                                sitelib             site library path
to add to @INC
                                vendorlib-$]        version-specific
vendor library path to add to @INC
                                vendorlib           vendor library path
to add to @INC
                                PERL*               fallback for all
%ENV lookups that begin with "PERL"

                            Note the $] in the above is not literal.
Substitute whatever version of perl you
                            want to honor that entry, e.g. 5.6.0. Paths
must be separated with semicolons,
                            as usual on win32.
