This is returning multiple values - that could be considered bad

Oh, you want to run it without the extension! Now that's a different
question than I thought you were asking. You need to add the .pl extension
to the PATHEXT environment variable. I'm not 100% sure of the best way to
do this in W98. You might be able to get away with adding the line:
SET
Sure. Assuming perl is in the default location type
#!C:/Perl/bin/Perl.exe
If this does not work Alternatively, go to My Computer - View - File
Types - Add a new type - Call it Perl - specify .pl as extension - Add
an action called Open - then C:\Perl\bin\Perl.exe %1 %* in the action
field.
I've never understood what the 'make' and 'make install' commands do. Can
someone shed the light?
Thanks

Global variables may be defined in several different manners.
1. Fully qualified with package name:

thanks for the advice, but I think that it is a problem with the way the
