I've been looking at Module::Dependency but haven't tried it yet. Be my guinea pig? I promise you a vote if you use it and report back to Perl Monks. Oh -- and a chicken in every pot too.	[reply]

I asked a similar question not long ago in Module dependency tool? and was directed to several alternatives: Module::Dependency Module::ScanDeps GraphViz::ISA Module::Use The first one one the list, Module::Dependency, was so good that I never went on to the others. It recursively scans directories for dependencies among modules and it can produce a dependency graph for any module (as well as ascii text versions). The graphs are a great help to reveal complex circular dependency chains. (Note: the EPS output style produced broken Postscript that would not print, but the PNG and JPG styles worked fine.)	[reply]

Thankyou all. I didn't actually use either of the modules suggested as they each had dependancies of their own I could not satisfy in the target environment, but browsing the source lead me to the follwing one-liner. Added to the bottom of the script in question it temms me what I need to know. `print "$_\n" for values %INC;` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
