Yep. I write scripts that will be used by many of my co-workers. I cannot guarantee that they have specific modules installed, or that they are even using ActiveState Perl (the other option for my company is Rational's ccperl). So I can't be sure that other people who run my scripts will even have "basic" modules like Win32, or Cwd. Rational's perl doesn't have these in the standard installation, btw. More often than not, I will pull the code directly from the module I want to use, if it's not too complex. I always give credit to the source, of course. In general, however, I agree -- and in my case I'm not actually re-writing something that someone else has done (and probably better than I could in the time allotted). ===== ------------------------------------ Jeffrey Hottle nkuvu at monkey yahoo dot com (remove the animal to email me!) __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
