Which one should I use?<br />

<br />
I guess the one that came with 5.0005 didn't work.<br />
<br />
Can I install another instance of perl if I don't have root permission?<br />

Yes, you can install newer modules from CPAN into your private library. Sometimes there will be a version conflict that cannot be overcome, but usually the newer modules will work with several backwards versions of Perl. I'm afraid the fastest way to find out is to try it.<br />

Hi,<br />
<br />
I'm trying to run a working script on perl version 5.8 on 5.005 - don't have authority to upgrade perl on this system.<br />
<br />
I put a copy of Telnet.pm in /home/pecc/MH/perl/Net and VT102.pm in /home/pecc/MH/perl/Term<br />
<br />
use lib qw(/home/pecc/MH/perl/);<br />
use Net::Telnet qw(TELOPT_TTYPE);<br />
use Term::VT102;<br />
use IO::Handle;<br />
<br />
When I run the program I get Can't locate auto/IO/Handle/blocking.al<wbr /> in @INC (@INC contains ........)<br />
<br />
There is a Handle.pm in /usr/perl5/5.00503/sun4-so<wbr />laris/IO/<br />
Do I need to use a different Handle.pm?<br />
<br />
I will be logged in for the next few hours today.<br />
<br />
Thanks

Hi,

I'm trying to run a working script on perl version 5.8 on 5.005 - don't have authority to upgrade perl on this system.

I put a copy of Telnet.pm in /home/pecc/MH/perl/Net and VT102.pm in /home/pecc/MH/perl/Term

use lib qw(/home/pecc/MH/perl/);
use Net::Telnet qw(TELOPT_TTYPE);
use Term::VT102;
use IO::Handle;

When I run the program I get Can't locate auto/IO/Handle/blocking.al in @INC (@INC contains ........)

There is a Handle.pm in /usr/perl5/5.00503/sun4-solaris/IO/
Do I need to use a different Handle.pm?

I will be logged in for the next few hours today.

Thanks

Perl is a high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, dynamic programming languages with over 25 years of development. Perl 5 runs on over 100 platforms from portables to mainframes and is suitable for both rapid prototyping and large-scale development projects.  Perl gained widespread popularity as a Common Gateway Interface (CGI) scripting language, in part due to its regular expression and string parsing abilities. In addition to CGI, Perl is used for graphics programming, system administration, network programming, finance, bioinformatics, and other applications.
