No but I didn't mean any change to MakeMaker. I meant just stick a Perl program (or any other kind of program) in your t/ directory as foo.t and have it do whatever you want. If you want to split an individual test into smaller files to make it easier to maintain, fine, but there's no reason for MakeMaker to have extra code to support this. If you want a particular test ordering, write your own Perl program or shell script to run the files in the correct order. Am I missing something? -- Ed Avis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
