Hi, I'm Heather Madrone, and I just signed onto this list this morning. At 10:44 PM 11/14/2002 +0000, Phil Dobbin wrote: >Switch, whether from Mac OS 9 or Win32, definitely ain't happening here :-(
I just got a Powerbook a week ago, and I'm so disgusted with it that I'm thinking of switching back. I've been a programmer since 1980, and have worked in a variety of environments, mostly Unix. I've never had a more frustrating experience with a new system, except trying to get Oracle installed on NCR. I've been using ActivePerl under emacs in Windows for the past several years. As soon as I get perl underway on OSX, I'll be moving my perl programs over. I'm running perl 5.8 on mac 10.2. I haven't yet been able to figure out how to get the carbon build of emacs (a gui emacs) to import the locale so that the perl debugger will run under emacs. Any suggestions for the best way to handle that? Also, which make do you use to get modules installed from CPAN?
