NAME

blib − Use MakeMaker’s uninstalled version of a package

SYNOPSIS

 perl −Mblib script [args...]
 perl −Mblib=dir script [args...]

DESCRIPTION

Looks for MakeMaker-like ’blib’ directory structure starting in dir (or current directory) and working back up to five levels of ’..’.

Intended for use on command line with −M option as a way of testing arbitrary scripts against an uninstalled version of a package.

However it is possible to :

 use blib;
 or
 use blib '..';

etc. if you really must.

BUGS

Pollutes global name space for development only task.
