With reference to Gerrit Haase's announcement,
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-06/msg01168.html,
I downloaded it and tried it out with
perl -i -pe s/in/out/ test.txt
and it didn't delete test.txt. I put
BEGIN
{
push @INC,
'/usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1/cygwin-multi',
, '/usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1'
, '/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/cygwin-multi'
, '/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1'
, '/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl'
, '.'
, '/usr/bin/perl'
;
}
in an old 5.6.1 program and it seems to find the modules OK.
Now I have to decide whether to start installing modules again in
the new places, or revert back to 5.6.1 and wait for the official
release.
