RE: [LUG] Perl: need to add path to @INC

["Darke, Clive" <Clive.darke@xxxxxx>]

 You can even use environment variables with use lib:  use lib $ENV{MYLIB};
and note that this is placed on the front of the @INC array, so this
directory is searched first.

This is not how to do it (although it works):

BEGIN {
       unshift(@INC,'/usr/underprivileged/me/lib');
      }
use Xbase;

This is how to do it:

use lib '/usr/underprivileged/me/lib';
use Xbase;

Now, doesn't that look nicer.
