What puzzles me deep is why Perl on Windows is not faking $ENV{HOME}
if $ENV{HOMEPATH} and $ENV{HOMEPATH} are both present... I think this
One of these should be $ENV{HOMEDRIVE}
would remove at least 10-20% of porting problems...From which hell get you HOME variable? :-)
The suggestion is for Perl to *fake* it in %ENV, deriving the value
from $ENV{HOMEDRIVE} and $ENV{HOMEPATH}. The system environment
doesn't have to have HOME for that.
