30 WHOA THERE! It looks like you've got some fancy dashes in your commandline!
31 These are *not* the traditional -- dashes that software recognizes. You
32 probably got these by copy-pasting from the perldoc for this module as
33 rendered by a UTF8-capable formatter. This most typically happens on an OS X
34 terminal, but can happen elsewhere too. Please try again after replacing the
35 dashes with normal minus signs.

348 To bootstrap if you don't have local::lib itself installed -
350 <download local::lib tarball from CPAN, unpack and cd into dir>
352 $ perl Makefile.PL --bootstrap
353 $ make test && make install
355 $ echo 'eval $(perl -I$HOME/perl5/lib/perl5 -Mlocal::lib)' >>~/.bashrc
362 % perl -I$HOME/perl5/lib/perl5 -Mlocal::lib >> ~/.cshrc
364 You can also pass --boostrap=~/foo to get a different location (adjust the
365 bashrc / cshrc line appropriately)
369 This module provides a quick, convenient way of bootstrapping a user-local Perl
370 module library located within the user's home directory. It also constructs and
371 prints out for the user the list of environment variables using the syntax
372 appropriate for the user's current shell (as specified by the C<SHELL>
373 environment variable), suitable for directly adding to one's shell configuration
376 More generally, local::lib allows for the bootstrapping and usage of a directory
377 containing Perl modules outside of Perl's C<@INC>. This makes it easier to ship
378 an application with an app-specific copy of a Perl module, or collection of
379 modules. Useful in cases like when an upstream maintainer hasn't applied a patch
380 to a module of theirs that you need for your application.
382 On import, local::lib sets the following environment variables to appropriate
395 PATH is appended to, rather than clobbered.
399 These values are then available for reference by any code after import.
401 =head1 A WARNING ABOUT UNINST=1
403 Be careful about using local::lib in combination with "make install UNINST=1".
404 The idea of this feature is that will uninstall an old version of a module
405 before installing a new one. However it lacks a safety check that the old
406 version and the new version will go in the same directory. Used in combination
407 with local::lib, you can potentially delete a globally accessible version of a
408 module while installing the new version in a local place. Only combine "make
409 install UNINST=1" and local::lib if you understand these possible consequences.
413 Rather basic shell detection. Right now anything with csh in its name is
414 assumed to be a C shell or something compatible, and everything else is assumed
415 to be Bourne. If the C<SHELL> environment variable is not set, a
416 Bourne-compatible shell is assumed.
418 Bootstrap is a hack and will use CPAN.pm for ExtUtils::MakeMaker even if you
419 have CPANPLUS installed.
421 Kills any existing PERL5LIB, PERL_MM_OPT or MODULEBUILDRC.
423 Should probably auto-fixup CPAN config if not already done.
425 Patches very much welcome for any of the above.
433 local::lib looks at the user's C<SHELL> environment variable when printing out
434 commands to add to the shell configuration file.
