<p>
You can use the environment variable <c>PERL5LIB</c> to specify a private area for the modules you write - see [http://perldoc.perl.org/perlrun.html#ENVIRONMENT|perlrun - ENVIRONMENT] for details.
</p>
<p>
The advantage of doing this is that it's independent of any path created by a third-party vendor. I don't currently have any Windows Perls but in the past (using Windows XP) I've had ActiveState and Strawberry Perls installed at the same time - both found the <em>single</em> copy of modules I'd written myself without requiring any additional <c>push @INC ...</c>, <c>use lib ...</c> or similar workarounds.
