Just the DCL quoting blues gettin to me I guess, especially as I am using ksh
and bash most of the time these days.

When it comes to using "prove" from the command line, I am adding a global symbol
$ sh sym/glob prove
PROVE == "$PERL_ROOT:[000000]PERL.EXE USER1:[IVORW.PERL.UTILS]PROVE"
I am finding that the prove -b (or --blib) option is not working from the command line.
It seems not to be picking up [.blib] into @INC when my test tries to use my .pm
