in reply to modules installed by default?

I also use ActiveState on my Windows 2000 box. The following code generates a list of all modules on my PC (including paths). I noticed that there were a lot of modules installed under the "C:\Perl\site\lib" subdirectory that I never added myself, so assuming that "C:\Perl\lib" is the only place for defaults would be a mistake.

I also have a Unix version of the code below. Both my versions print to the screen and to a file (as a newbie, I kinda like seeing it "do" something so I know it's working!). ;-)

#!/usr/bin/perl5 -w #finds all .pm modules on a PC use strict; use File::Find; my $report = "C:\\Temp\\results.txt"; open MYOUTPUT, "> $report" or die "Can't open $report: $!"; my @directories = ("C:\\Perl"); my @foundfiles; # Collect all .pm files below each directory in @directories # and put them into @foundfiles find ( sub { push @foundfiles, $File::Find::name if /\.pm$/ }, @directories); #and print them to my file "results.txt" print "$_\n" for @foundfiles; print MYOUTPUT "$_\n" for @foundfiles; close MYOUTPUT;
Hope that helps.
