[Bioperl-l] bioperl-db and MySQL

[chen li]

I unzipped the download files and used "nmake install"
to install bioperl-db on my computer. And it seems it
works because I see many files/pm are copied to the
defautl library(c:/Perl/site/lib/Bio/DB...." on my
computer). Now my question: How do I know if it is
installed correctly and will be working? Can I issue a
command like "perldoc ???" to check if it is in the
documantation?

Thanks,

Li
