Rob -----Original Message----- From: Jan Eden [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 26, 2004 11:39 AM To: Perl Lists Subject: Placing handmade modules Hi all, I use the following code to use a module I made: use lib "$ENV{HOME}/Library/Scripts/Modules"; use Test::Template; my ($update_path, $gallery_title) = &Test::Template::choose(); The module sits in /Users/jan/Library/Scripts/Modules/Test. Now Perl tells me it cannot locate the subroutine "choose". If I place Template.pm directly into the path set in the "use lib" line and remove the "Test::" at both places, everything works fine. I read in the camel that double colon separators in a module name would be translated to a directory structure when Perl searches for them. Why doesn't Perl do it for me? Thanks, Jan -- How many Microsoft engineers does it take to screw in a lightbulb? None.
