in thread Alternative to NET::FTP

What's this line do?
use lib "script/libnet/Net/FTP.pm";
I mean, I know what it does. Do you? :-)

    I was hoping that it instructs the interpreter to 'use' FTP.pm. If I really DID know what it meant, I wouldn't have asked for help :) If you know what it does, then can you please correct the errors of my ways? I first set my novice eyes on a Perl script a mere 2 weeks ago and I am not, nor ever will, claim to be a programming guru. I was just asking for help.
      It means you should check the output of perldoc lib a little more closely. The lib pragma adds directories to @INC, but doesn't actually pull any library in.
