# pmdirs(1p)

print out module directories

## NAME

pmdirs - print out module directories

## DESCRIPTION

This just prints out the current `@INC` path, one directory per line. This is for people who don't want to parse through `"perl -V"` output or hack up their own calls to `"perl -e"`.

## EXAMPLES

```
    $ pmdirs
    /home/tchrist/perllib/i686-linux
    /home/tchrist/perllib
    /usr/local/devperl/lib/5.00554/i686-linux
    /usr/local/devperl/lib/5.00554
    /usr/local/devperl/lib/site_perl/5.00554/i686-linux
    /usr/local/devperl/lib/site_perl/5.00554
    .
```

This also works for alternate version of Perl:

```
    $ filsperl -S pmdirs
    /home/tchrist/perllib
    /usr/local/filsperl/lib/5.00554/i686-linux-thread
    /usr/local/filsperl/lib/5.00554
    /usr/local/filsperl/lib/site_perl/5.00554/i686-linux-thread
    /usr/local/filsperl/lib/site_perl/5.00554
    .
```
