in thread w/Modules and w/o Modules

...or when you're confined to an old version of Perl that doesn't support the module you might've used...
In my case, since I cannot directly attach to CPAN from my dev machine...

My sympathies. It must be difficult to work in an environment that doesn't trust its skilled professionals.

I find the install hassle to be a pain... as I have to dl it on one machine, burn it to a disk, then install it by hand on my dev machine...

Have you seen CPAN::Mini? You could save yourself a lot of time.

    I don't take it personally. My employer (...if I told you, I'd have to kill you...) doesn't trust anyone... :-) It's the nature of this particular job.

    Btw, Thanks for the suggestion, about CPAN::Mini... I hope to have the time to check it out.
