You could cat them all together if you think that would help? Or on the target OS, with the target Perl version, run all your test suites, examine the outcome.	[reply]

On your 5.8 system use `perl -MCPAN -eautobundle` to create a bundle for you, which you can then transfer to the new system and install the same way you would any other bundle: `perl -MCPAN -e "install Bundle::Snapshot_YYYY_MM_DD_00"`.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

You can use find: `find /path/to/the/scripts -name '*.pl' -exec perl -wc {} \;` perl -wc is to check the syntax of the scripts. They should give "OK" back, but that is not a guarantee to run correctly, though; only that the libraries are found and the syntax is ok according to Perl. This only works if the perl scripts have the .pl extension (which is not mandatory).	[reply] [d/l]
