Hello,
 
I'm wondering if I need to do something special when relocating the
ActivePerl installation directory. Here's some background on why I want to
do this:
 
I want to code Perl at school. But they do not allow anyone to install
programs on the PCs there. So I thought I could install ActivePerl at home,
install any modules I need through PPM, and then copy the whole directory
either on a CD or a USB keydrive. I tried it, and when I tried running perl
-V on the school machines from the correct directory, an error about
Config.pm not being in @INC came up. I set the PERL5LIB environment variable
to "X:\perl\lib; X:\perl\site\lib" (where X is the drive containing the
copied Perl directory) and tried it again, and it still gave an error, this
time something about a missing $ in Config.pm. (now I realize that it's
probably the semicolon I put as a path separator that's causing the error,
I'll try again with a comma next time).

Am I missing anything else? Can this be made to work? Has anyone tried this
before?

I searched ActiveState's archives for something similar, but didn't find
anything. Sorry if this is a recurring question...

Thanks in advance,
