Re: Perl documentation inaccessible via 'perldoc'.

I wonder, do you have TMPDIR set? Try setting it, e.g.

export TMPDIR=/tmp/Rob


Yep - that fixes it. Both TEMP and TMP were set, but not TMPDIR.


How do I make that alteration a permanent fixture, so that I don't have to do it every time I open a new shell ? I tried editing etc/profile (in wordpad), but only succeeded in stuffing up the line endings - and had to replace that file with a copy of the backup from etc/defaults/etc/profile.

Thanks Andrew.

Cheers,
Rob
