in thread Sprite Module Call

You can't access it, it's in my company's internal web. And my sys admin has stopped answering my e-mails(not like he was very effective when he was) (Our Perl is from 1993, cutting edge huh?) If anyone know how to set up Perl5 in a subdirectory of a server so that when I try to run something it'll go to that instead of the basic one, please tell me (as in when I try using the perl command in a terminal)

Thanx

    Presuming you can get to the command line (otherwise, this is even HARDER!), do this: 
    # start with perldistro in whatever.tar.gz
$ gunzip <whatever.tar.gz | tar xfv -
$ cd whatever-just-got-unpacked
$ ./Configure -ders -Dprefix=$HOME
$ make all test install

    [download]
    You now have $HOME/bin/perl!
