The documentation is wrong, which is where he got the erroneous
plural. The synopsis section of the documentation also fails to
include a C<use DCLsym;> line. The module is really pretty simple to
use as the following one-line example illustrates:
$ perl -e "use VMS::DCLsym; $h = new VMS::DCLsym; $h->setsym('foo','bar','GLOBAL');"
$ show symbol/global foo
FOO == "bar"
$
BTW, VMS::DCLsym has been part of the core distribution for a long
time, so there's no need to download anything from CPAN.
