reloc_perl - relocate a perl installation


NAME

reloc_perl - relocate a perl installation


SYNOPSIS

  reloc_perl [-a] [-b] [-d] [-e destpath] [-f file] [-i] [-t] [-r] [-v]
             topath [frompath]


DESCRIPTION

This tool will move a perl installation wholesale to a new location.

Edits path names in binaries (e.g., a2p, perl, libperl.a) to reflect the new location, but preserves the size of strings by null padding them as necessary.

Edits text files by simple substitution.

'destpath' cannot be longer than 'frompath'.

If 'frompath' is not found in any files, no changes whatsoever are made.

Running the tool without arguments provides more help.
