Problem with Environment variables and POD

Hello, According to the PAR POD (http://search.cpan.org/~autrijus/PAR-0.87/lib/PAR.pm) you can set the environment variable PAR_TEMP to control where the temporary caching directory is located. This does not work for me on the configuration described here :-/ Dist: PAR-0.87 Perl: perl 5.8.6 MSWin32-x86-multi-thread OS: Windows 2000 But I located this post about the same problem (http://www.mail-archive.com/par@perl.org/msg01684.html) -- The variable to override the username temp dir is PAR_GLOBAL_TEMP, not PAR_TEMP. There are three "global" variables that override the PAR app values: PAR_GLOBAL_TEMP, PAR_GLOBAL_CLEAN and PAR_GLOBAL_DEBUG. -- I have tested with PAR_GLOBAL_TEMP and now it works for me - so I think this is just a matter of the POD needing an update or? jonasbn

As far as I can see this ticket can be closed with the latest release. I have not looked at the POD only the ChangeLog. Keep up the good work, jonasbn
