Hi Rob,

portable.perl file (in strawberry portable perl root dir) is the place where all portable dark magic takes place.

  Hi, 

  Having installed a portable build of Strawberry 5.20.0, how do I then alter $Config{libpth} - such that the alteration to $Config{libpth} is already in place every time I open up an instance of the strawberry shell ? 

  For my own Windows perls, I would do this by editing appropriately the libpth entry in Config_heavy.pl and Config.pm, but Stawberry seems to be reading libpth from some other source(s) as the entries in Config_heavy.pl and Config.pm don't even match $Config{libpth}. 
  And changing the libpth entries in those 2 files doesn't seem to be having any effect at all. 

  Cheers, 
  Rob
