    'destpath' must be shorter than 'frompath' unless the -a option is
    specified.

    'destpath' must shorter than the path built into this Perl binary,
    unless the -t option is given. The -a switch cannot override this
    restriction.

    -i is assumed if `topath' exists, is a directory, and `frompath'
    doesn't exist.

=head1 NAME

reloc_perl - relocate a perl installation

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  reloc_perl [-a] [-b] [-d] [-e destpath] [-f file] [-i] [-t] [-r] [-v
+]
             topath [frompath]

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This tool will move a perl installation wholesale to a new location.

Edits path names in binaries (e.g., a2p, perl, libperl.a) to reflect t
+he
new location, but preserves the size of strings by null padding them a
+s
necessary.

Edits text files by simple substitution.

'destpath' cannot be longer than 'frompath'.

If 'frompath' is not found in any files, no changes whatsoever are mad
+e.

Running the tool without arguments provides more help.
