This enhanced Env.pm and t/lib/env.t implements environment
arrays (see the POD in Env.pm).
On Unix and Win32,
use Env qw(@PATH);
allows the user to mess with the path environment variable
as if it were truly an array, automatically splitting and
joining with the system's default path separator.
Dan Sugalski requested support for VMS' built-in arrays in
the logical name tables. I don't know or have access to VMS,
but I used the information he provided in putting (read-only)
support in.
Dan suggested I send this your way, in hopes that some
interested parties here might excercise it a bit. I'm trying
to get it in shape so that Sarathy will accept it for 5.6,
and I'd like to provide some up-front assurance that it works
right for VMS. I would especially appreciate patches to
t/lib/env.t that can do a good job of verification on VMS
systems.
I'm not subscribed to this list, so direct email would be
appreciated.
Any takers?
Regards,
