Re: Adding to @INC

Thanks guys! That did the trick. I added
    export PERL5LIB=${PERL5LIB}:/opt/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8
to ~/.bash_profile = ~/.bashrc, and I also added
    <key>PERL5LIB</key>
    <string>/opt/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8</string>
to my ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist so Mac applications, e.g., BBEdit,  
will also search in the right place.
