This should work anyplace File::Spec can split directories, which should be anywhere Perl runs these days.

This may not do much good on Windows: the crazy directory structures common to Windows systems do not seem very amenable to using $FindBin::Bin as the starting point for locating libraries.

Anyone with access to VMS warn me if this works at all – through judicious use of virtual devices should make it useful.

The pod describes using the module in a few situations, any suggestions appreciated. In particular, I toyed with several ways of passing in switches. The one used here was chosen because it supports qw( … ) syntax with optional parameters (e.g., qw(export) and qw(export=foo)).

Installation:

perl Makefile.PL;
make all test install;
perldoc FindBin::libs;
