Randal -- Thanks for taking the time to check it out (and, sorry I didn't get it right the first time). I see now where the problem was. The older code was using the CVS revision number as the VERSION, so the problem was deeper than just 0.009. Versions back to 0.005 have the same situation.
Therefore, I've upgraded the Perl Shell to the nicely inflated version number of 1.7. Hopefully that will gloss over things sufficiently. I did test my system by doing an r /Psh/ under cpan, and it was satisfied that I am up to date. Version 1.7 is on its way to CPAN as we speak. As before, let me know if this doesn't make the problem go away for you... Regards, -- Gregor [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Randal L.

After installing 1.1, this is what it now complains: cpan> r /Psh/ Package namespace installed latest in CPAN file Psh 1.1 1.67 G/GR/GREGOR/psh-0.009.tar.gz This says that even though I have Psh -- version 1.1, installed, I can get a Psh version 1.67 by installingn psh-0.009. Either remove psh-0.009 from the CPAN, or create a Psh module larger than 1.67 in a new release of Psh. -- Randal L.
