Subject: inline can't see \n
use Inline C =><<C_CODE;

printf("hello world!!!\n");
}
C_CODE
main();
show_pl_2930.xs: In function `main':
show_pl_2930.xs:7: error: missing terminating " character
show_pl_2930.xs:8: error: missing terminating " character
show_pl_2930.xs:9: error: syntax error before '}' token
dmake: Error code 129, while making 'show_pl_2930.o'
The error messages are confusing. The real problem is that you have written:
use Inline C =><<C_CODE;
but it needs to be:
use Inline C =><<'C_CODE';
If you fix that it should be ok on windows. (The closing C_CODE must *not*
be quoted ... just the opening C_CODE.)
Probably not a good idea to be calling the function 'main' as that has
special significance in C - and, in fact, on some (maybe even all) unix-type
systems that script would not compile unless you change the name of the
function to something else.
