(Firstly, a quick note - I apologize for my confusion in earlier sending out HTML postings to this mailing list. I wasn't aware that I was doing it. Anyway, I hope that this format is OK - plain text as far as I know) I currently have Gimp v1.1.24 (developers' version). I don't have any Perl-related menu items on the Xtns menu, and so in an attempt to remedy this, I downloaded the gimp-perl v1.16 distribution from http://registry.gimp.org. As per the instructions, I executed the command "perl Makefile.pl", but got the following error messages : ./configure: =.: command not found ./configure: line 907: syntax error near unexpected token `"(c' ./configure: line 907: ` echo $ac_n "(cached) $ac_c" 1>&6' I currently have the following installed on my machine : GTK+ version 1.2.6-6mdk perl version 5.00503-10mdk perl-GTK 0.6123-7mdk gimp 1.1.24 In the hope of getting some clue to this error, I tried looking for the string "$ac_n" in the source file Makefile.pl, but couldn't find it. What should I do from here ? Thanks in advance, regards, Andrew J Fortune
