Hi monks,
can you please look at my situation
I have a structure where in all my files are in two
directories /files/gui and /files/db and my cgi files
use the files under these directories .

so i have in all files the above package names

(eg)
package files::db::newfile; use files::db::skills_db qw//;
use files::gui::skills_gui qw//;

Every time i copy these files under different paths to create new set ups

newpath/gui and newpath/db/

i have to change these names in all of my files
(eg)
package newpath::db::newfile; use newpath::db::skills_db qw//;
use newpath::gui::skills_gui qw//;>

My question is i dont want to change these everytime, i
tried setting $ENV{'FOLDER'}="newpath" ,

package $ENV{'FOLDER'}::db::newfile;
use $ENV{'FOLDER'}::db::skills_db qw//;

but it doesnt replace these instead i get errors
Can any one suggest a way to this?

Thanks
