No, it does not "work". $script_dir is undef at compile-time. $script_dir = get_lib(); doesn't happen until run-time. Solution: sub get_lib { ... } use lib get_lib(); or: sub get_lib { ... } BEGIN { $script_dir = get_lib(); } use lib $script_dir; -- Jeff "japhy" Pinyan [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pobox.com/~japhy/ RPI Acacia brother #734 http://www.perlmonks.org/ http://www.cpan.org/ ** Look for "Regular Expressions in Perl" published by Manning, in 2002 ** <stu> what does y/// stand for? <tenderpuss> why, yansliterate of course.
