i'm using net::telnet to connect to a remote script (rather than a
login). the script internally uses ^] to step back through
the problem is not the My.
The program prints:
print 0
print 1
print 2

How can I modify the early part of code below
such that I don't have to manually key in the files this way:

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to make an installer for my program and was planning on
using ExtUtils::MakeMaker, but don't know how to read the value set in
PREFIX when the user does:
perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/foo/bar
How can i read this value in the main program? to reffer some paths to that.
Joe,
Try turning binmod on. If it fails post some code and a bit more od a
description of what you are trying to do.

Oops! I just realized your using that '-w' switch to perl up there.
That IS using the warnings pragma, I believe. Sorry about that!

Hi, Bret
You must tell perl what kinds of var the $i is, when 'use strict'. $i can be
a lexical var or a global var.
my $i = 1; # $i is a lexical var.
our $i = 1; # $i is a global var, perl 5.6+ only.
use vars qw($i); # also as global var, but can work under old perl
