One of the easier ways is to put all the subroutines into a file with a .pm extension mysubs.pm and put it somewhere inside @INC Then in your scripts put: use mysubs; (note the extension pm is left out in the `use') but the file name must have it. Find out where @INC is with `perl -V' If you have permissions put it somewhere like: /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl Other wise investigate `require' and use lib Something like `use lib "/path/to/dir";' Then put mysubs.pm in /path/to/dir -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
