-6) perl:
- ----
-
-For LaTeX import (relyx.cmd) you need perl:
-Check your local CPAN server for a recent OS/2 port or try:
-
- http://www.perl.org
-
-Note:
-----
-If perl cannot find its modules and libraries it has a hardcoded
-path chosen at compile time that does not match your configuration.
-You can recompile with your directory structure or exchange the path
-as follows (from man perlos2):
-
- PERLLIB_PREFIX
-
- Specific for EMX port. Should have the form
-
- path1;path2
-
- or
-
- path1 path2
-
- If the beginning of some prebuilt path matches path1, it
- is substituted with path2.
-
- Should be used if the perl library is moved from the
- default location in preference to PERL(5)LIB, since this
- would not leave wrong entries in @INC. Say, if the
- compiled version of perl looks for @INC in f:/perllib/lib,
- and you want to install the library in h:/opt/gnu, do
-
- set PERLLIB_PREFIX=f:/perllib/lib;h:/opt/gnu"
-On my system 'f:/perllib/lib' is hardcoded and has to be exchanged
-for 'd:/bin/perllib/lib'. Also like many other programs ported from
-UNIX (unfortunately this is also true for many XFree/2 programs) it
-uses a UNIX-like sh; you should give its path.
-I recommend sh.exe of pdksh.zip; other shells have problems.
-
-Here an example of my config.sys:
-
-rem Not default directory of perllib/lib (here:d:\bin)
-set PERLLIB_PREFIX=f:/perllib/lib;d:/bin/perllib/lib
-rem Where sh.exe of pdksh.zip resides:
-set PERL_SH_DIR=D:\bin
-
-excerpt from perlos2:
-
- After you installed the components you needed and updated
- the Config.sys correspondingly, you need to hand-edit
- Config.pm. This file resides somewhere deep in the
- location you installed your perl library, find it out by
-
- perl -MConfig -le "print $INC{'Config.pm'}"
-
- You need to correct all the entries which look like file
- paths (they currently start with f:/).
-
- Warning
-
- The automatic and manual perl installation leave
- precompiled paths inside perl executables. While these
- paths are overwriteable (see the section on
- PERLLIB_PREFIX, the section on PERL_SH_DIR), one may get
- better results by binary editing of paths inside the
- executables/DLLs.
