I think that if you have enough disk space you should be able to build yourself a second perl install that doesn't have Term::ANSIColor installed, by configuring perl to use a different prefix and ensuring it doesn't have any of the "standard" places to find libraries in INC. Alternatively, if your Term::ANSIColor is installed in 5.6.1's directories, just build yourself a 5.005_03 in the regular place :-) Nicholas Clark -- EMCFT http://www.ccl4.org/~nick/CV.html
