in reply to Can't get Tk.pm to work [SOLVED]

Fixing your cpan would be the answer as above, but you can use the following to add an extra directory (or more) for your script to access modules not in your usual path: http://perldoc.perl.org/lib.htm

    cpan isn't broken, and doesn't require fixing. Note that your suggestion introduces the binary incompatibility problem.

    As a side note What shortcuts can I use for linking to other information?, [doc://lib] -> lib.

      Should be, .html, perlmonks takes care of all this for you via [doc://lib] -> lib.

        I tried it several times. Each time was resolved to 404, then I've added l to make html, instead of htm, and it worked.
