Perl parameter


I have 2 directories that I want to execute when I execute perl.

These two files are not installed in location where perl can find them on its own. How do I set the 2 parameters to supply the approariate directories.

/usr/local/cat/bin & /usr/local/cat/lib

Do you mean you want to put these directories in $PATH before you execute the perl script?

PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/cat/bin:/usr/local/cat/lib

I already have /usr/local/ in the path but my perl can not excute /usr/local/cat/bin & /usr/local/cat/lib. Is there a way to do something like PathAdd: /usr/local/cat/bin or LibAdd: /usr/local/cat/lib/perl
