Fritz, thank you! I am a beginner perl user, this is very helpful. MacPorts very much tries to be self contained, so changing the environment variable would be a last resort, since it lives outside of where MacPorts puts it's files. I edited ASSP to use a new path to perl, and all but 3 perl mods looked in the correct location. /opt/local/bin/perl -e 'print join "\n", @INC' /opt/local/lib/perl5/5.8.9/darwin-2level /opt/local/lib/perl5/5.8.9 /opt/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9/darwin-2level /opt/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9 /opt/local/lib/perl5/site_perl /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.9/darwin-2level /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.9 /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl Do you have any idea why three mods that ASSP needs were still looking in my default perl locations on Mac OS X? I would like to go with adding in use lib 'path'; in ASSP, where would be the best place to put this in ASSP? Other than changing the #!/usr/bin/perl at the top of all ASSP scripts, is there anything else I should look into when using a perl that is not in that location?
