Re: How to install modules that aren't available in ActiveState's repository?

Gary,   Download the modules from CPAN and try compiling them using nmake for Windows which is freely available off Microsoft's site. Do the normal:   perl Makefile.PL nmake nmake test nmake install   If the module is tested on Win32 it should be fine but modules built specifically for UNIX operating systems will most likely fail.   HTH, Trevor Joerges ----- Original Message ----- From: Gary Nielson To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 11, 2003 9:07 PM Subject: How to install modules that aren't available in ActiveState's repository? For example, today I went to download XML-SAX-Machines and XML-LibXML using ppm in XP. Neither one was there or complete as in:  ppm> install XML-SAX-Machines Error: PPD for 'XML-SAX-Machines.ppd' could not be found. ppm> install XML-LibXML Error: Package 'XML-LibXML' not found. Please 'search' for it first. ppm> How do I install modules in XP outside of the ppm?     sage----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Jason Earl Tedrick Sent: Tuesday, November 11, 2003 8:43 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Simple Script I am looking for a simple script that will go into the registry and look for the user currently logged on and display that information in an easy to read text file for a bunch of computers on the network.  If I could get someone to point me in the right direction that’d be helpful, I always need a push to get me going it seems…and I am still learning so my skill is pretty newbie’ish…*cry* ~Jason
