* Make PERLLIB_SEP dynamic on VMS.Craig A. Berry2016-09-011-2/+4
| | | | | | | Because if we're running under a Unix shell, the path separator is likely to meet the expectations of Unix shell scripts better if it's the Unix ':' rather than the VMS '|'. There is no change when running under DCL.
* Do environ key case consistently on VMS.Craig A. Berry2016-02-041-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | For those %ENV elements based on the CRTL environ array, we've always preserved case when setting them but done look-ups only after upcasing the key first, which makes lower- or mixed-case entries go missing. So make them consistently case-preserved and in the docs distinguish this behavior from the case-blind behavior of keys for %ENV entries based on logical namees and DCL symbols, which remains unchanged.
* Some updates for perlvms.pod.Craig A. Berry2015-04-041-60/+24
| | | | | Remove some woefully out-of-date and/or incorrect material and fix a few other nits.
* Reverse order of environ tables under bash on VMS.Craig A. Berry2014-08-081-24/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The default for populating %ENV on VMS is from logical names first and the CRTL environ array second unless overridden by setting PERL_ENV_TABLES. That's a reasonable default for DCL, but not quite right when running under bash as exports under bash might end up hidden behind logical names. So reverse the default order when GNV$UNIX_SHELL is set. Also stop mentioning that setenv() may not be present in the CRTL since it is present for VMS versions 7.0 and later and those are the only ones we support.
* Wrap various pod uses of NUL with C<>Karl Williamson2014-05-301-2/+2
| | | | | | This makes the uses of this consistent in our pods. Also changed one use of the word 'buffer' into 'string', the latter being more appropriate.

* Trim multiple blank lines above =item in pod files.Nicholas Clark2011-06-221-1/+0
| | | | | | This makes many documents more consistent in their pod formatting. Don't trim blank lines between verbatim blocks and =item, as removing them makes the (raw) pod harder to read.

* Increase default pipe buffer size on VMS to 8192 on 64-bit systems.Craig A. Berry2010-01-051-9/+8
| | | | | | | | As Charles Lane's piping code reaches its 10-year anniversary, it's time to bump up the default to something slightly more appropriate for modern systems. In addition to other benefits, this fixes test failures when a test script outputs a large amount of text on one line (e.g., t/re/reg_posixcc.t).
* PATCH: minor typo cleanup of pod/ directoryTom Christiansen2010-01-051-28/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | These are all in the pod/ directory, and only the first is a code fix. There was also a single lingering ISO 8859-1 encoding that missed the UTF-8 upconvert. The rest are cleanups for typos, some of which seem to have been around for a rather long time: spelling errors, incorrect possessives, and extra, missing, or duplicated words. If you actually read through, I bet you'll realize what sparked this. :) --tom Signed-off-by: Abigail <abigail@abigail.be>
