Re: [Expectperl-discuss] Program won't work on new system

[Hal V. <ha...@th...>]

To those who have responded -- thanks.

I had tried a chmod -R to change the mod on all the library files.  It didn't 
work -- but then, that was early in the morning, after 4 hours of sleep.

I tried it again after someone else suggested it.  It worked.  Maybe I just 
wasn't awake enough to pay attention when I did it at first.

Thanks!

Hal
