[MacPerl] Serial.pm



Hello:

      I am a fairly recent convert to Macs and am trying to teach myself
some perl from the Macperl book. I have made some good progress learning
the basics but am having difficulties getting the above package to work.
According to the documentation I need to place the serial.pm file (or an
alias) in my "site_perl:mac"  folder and the folder "serial v1.007"  in
the "site_perl" folder.
I have tried a few different combinations with no success. My directory
structure (or is it a folder structure) from root is
MacPBHD::Macperl:site_perl:mac. When I attempt to run the master.t test
file in the "t" folder I am getting an error "Can't locate Mac/serial.pm
in @INC. The line giving me the error is "use Mac::serial;"

                 Is this a virtual path ? or a path from root.

Any assistance or (references where to look for information) will be
gratefully received.

Dave
