setting env variables in perl
How do you set your CVSROOT and CVSHOME environment variables in perl.
I tried $ENV{`CVSROOT`} = `:pserver:j...etc... and
$ENV{`CVSHOME`} = pathtopasswordfile
but this does not seem to work. I am trying to run a long cvs rdiff
command line from within perl that also uses grep and sed to get
desired output. I was told that perl needs to know these cvs
environments. Is this the correct way to set cvs environments.

If you`re on UNIX/Linux, try
`export CVSROOT=pathtopasswordfile`
