in reply to Cookies with out milk.

argh. trying to hand roll cookie code is tough. Why not just compile whatever module you need, stick it in your home directory, and do:
$foo='/path/to/my/module';
use lib $foo;

Update: merlyn pointed out below that this won't work. It should be:

use lib '/path/to/my/modules';

    And thus spoke bluelines: 
    $foo='/path/to/my/module'; 
use lib $foo;

    [download]
    Which won't work, because the use will be at compile time, but the setting of $foo will not happen until runtime. {sigh}.

    Either put the assignment inside a BEGIN, or just use lib '/path/to/my/module';

    I like the Idea but the Server admins would not. Not that I would have to tell them.
